Another kind of revolution

"Elena Setién's Another Kind of Revolution conceptualizes transformation as rooted in empowerment. The album is a recognition of women and their ability to act as catalysts for a popular and personal insurgency ... Another Kind of Revolution is a stirring signal to defy gender conventions while lauding and magnifying women's identities and contributions".

"Det er et både usædvanligt og forrygende flot album, den katalansk/spanske singer-songwriter, Elena Setién (der er uddannet på RMC i København (...)), nu udsender. Et gennemarbejdet, kantet og mørkt singer-songwriter-album, som først forekommer lige skævt nok, men som ved gentagne aflytninger åbner sig mere og mere med en både lyrisk og musisk tyngde ... Albummet må genrebetegnes som indie-pop, og det er blevet et, jeg spiller igen og igen, med glæde. Jeg elsker det. Det kantede, det mørke. Det lyriske, det melodiske".

"On her Thrill Jockey debut, this Basque multi-instrumentalist ties together political and personal revolutions with atmospheric and even cinematic ballads ... In Setién's universe, whether the stories are triumphant or tragic, meanings and morals remain elusive. Setién's particular revolutions might seem unfamiliar or mysterious, but her songwriting invites curious listeners in, adding texture and complexity where we may not have found it ourselves".
