Santigold dares a brush with the unknown on 'Spirituals.' Read moonagedemon's review:
Most pop music revolves around the examination of the self: Songwriters build soundscapes to score the course of our relationships, the moments where we reckon with our emotions and our impressions of the world around us, bearing it all in hopes that we’ll see our reflection in the mirror they hold up to us.
Pulling as much from dancehall vocalists like Sister Nancy as she does the weirdo art-punk of a band like Devo or the early hip-hop she heard growing up in Philadelphia, each Santigold release builds upon a collage of ever-evolving influences in her quest for something beyond the individual. Her first full-length project in four years,, completes the next logical step in that evolution.
Some of the album’s most exciting turns come when sonic dissonance stands toe-to-toe with the lyrics, rather than masking White’s frustration, including the “future sound of punk rock” she introduces on lead single “High Priestess.” White taunts her opposition over whirring bass, sputtering electronic clicks and cooing call-and-response backing vocals that tease right along with her: “Hey pretty / Awww, you really want my thunder / I guard the gates here / Guard the secrets while you wonder.
