Big Thief
TWO HANDS
4ad
If ‘ufof’ had its head in the skies with its grander themes and lusher sound than previous big thief outings then ‘two hands’ is firmly rooted in the earth and what lies below – a dark, testing but ultimately stunning reflection on loss. This is an album of heartbreak, of pain, of emotional vulnerability and honesty – lenker’s lyrics are never forthright or straightforward, but here she sounds as close as she ever has to unpicking the tapestry she weaves around her subjects. Four albums in three years and each one is as essential as the last. “a band currently in a state of creative overspill” 4/5 – mojo; “lenker’s lyrics again inhabit an oblique dimension, defying simple explaination but offering a sense of personal, political and planetary loss” 8/10 - uncut
