Cazimi

"While the characters on CAZIMI aren't always at peace, it sounds like Rose is. Even as she experiments with new sounds, textures and situations, the country-rock queen remains a reliable source of genuine stories. Who knows when or if we'll get another Caitlin Rose album, but it's clear that no matter what direction her career takes, Rose will stick to her guns-even if that means racing confidently toward the sun".

"There's something slippery about the music on Caitlin Rose's new album, CAZIMI. Rose has a pleasant voice that slides in and out of the instrumentation like a kid playing hide and go seek in the house on a rainy day. She sings the melodies (mostly) without catchy hooks so that the lyrics float on top of the instrumentation without giving the listener something on which to grab. The effect purposely blurs the distinctions between what is sung and what is heard. Think of the result as sort of a sonic impressionist painting. The blurring is intentional and purposeful".

"The Texas-born Nashvillian previously proved herself a natural translator of honky-tonk's emotional entanglements; on her long-delayed third record, she makes a complete song cycle out of them".
