Barbier Hélène - Panorama

Fakten Hélène Barbier's album Panorama is a collection of songs featuring different musical contributions (Ada Lea, Meg Duffy, etc), sometimes in French, sometimes in English. Imagine if The Shaggs had taken guitar lessons from Tom Verlaine and then accidentally formed a band by some divine twist of fate. The resulting album is a thrift store symphony of gooey jangle pop riffs, throaty melodies, and a séance of tangled grooves like a dying jukebox coughing up its last perfect song.
