Product Review

One of the most inimitable songwriters of the past decade - Portland, Oregon's Laura Veirs - returns with her ninth full-length album. Beautiful, lush and at times deeply dark, Warp and Weft captures the intensity of motherhood, love and violence. Primarily electric-guitar driven, it is a fever dream of an album and could well be Veirs' best work to date, building on the uniform praise and commercial success of 2010's "July Flame".
