My Light, My Destroyer

Cassandra Jenkins

Following up on the masterful An Overview on Phenomenal Nature can't have been easy, but the fact is that Cassandra Jenkins manages to outdo herself. The New York-based singer-songwriter's musical expression has been further refined. Jazzy, smooth, or to use an extremely bourgeois word: sophisticated, pop with elements of indie rock makes the '60s meet the '90s in a completely natural way. Not to mention Cassandra's singing voice, which is one of the most pleasant things you can treat your ears to right now. One of the absolute best albums of the year.
