Editorial Reviews

With her dazzling 2009 sophomore album, Bat For Lashes is set to assume the mantle of the most dynamic and intriguing Pop performer in the UK. Natasha Khan's debut, Fur And Gold, was nominated for the 2007 Mercury Music Prize, and earned two Brit Award nominations for Best Breakthrough and Best Female in 2008. The album's blend of spooky childhood reveries and magical piano balladry caught the imagination of everyone and not just in the music world. Bat for Lashes was asked to support Radiohead on their European tour last summer at the band's personal request, where she assembled a new live band to explore fresh musical forms, before heading out to New York and the Californian desert to write what has now become Two Suns. 11 tracks including the single 'Daniel'.

5.0 out of 5 starsTo be made of glass
By EA Solinas HALL OF FAMETOP 500 REVIEWERVINE VOICE on April 7, 2009
Format: Audio CD
It's like climbing a long velvet rope sewn with golden charms and jewels. That description sums up the experience of listening to Bat For Lashes (aka Natasha Khan), even in her lesser songs. And fortunately "Two Suns" doesn't really have any lesser songs -- just a steady stream of painfully exquisite, crystalline pop that focus on the feeling of love that's gone.

"In the street's broadways I seek... him whom my soul loveth," she sings softly in the introductory song, before switching to a mix of tribal drums and wafting keyboard. .

After that, she spreads out into a string of love songs -- in fact, this entire album is pretty heavy on those. Most are bittersweet descriptions of an affair falling apart ("I drove past true love once, in a dream/Like a house that caught fire, it burned and flamed"), but there are some beautifully idealistic moments as well.

Along the way, Khan dabbles in some stompy synthy dance, a hymnlike freak-folk ballad backed by a choir, and the warmly off-kilter "Traveling Woman," and a finale that evokes old wooden stages, toy pianos and an old theatre being shut down ("No more spotlights/coming down from heaven... and already my voice is fading/goodbye, my dears/and into the big city...").

Fortunately she doesn't abandon her signature sound, which is that of an old fantasy story mutating into a beautiful, slightly wicked dream -- swirling pop, haunting piano ballads, the soaring and unnerving echoes of "Siren" and its synth-studded companion "Pearl's Song," ethereal melodies swathed in shimmering keyboard, and the exotic sweet danciness of "Two Planets." But the absolute peak of the whole thing has to be "Daniel," an catchily effervescent ode to a man with a "flame in his heart.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsThom Yorke said it! Bat for lashes is something else.
By NUEVE on June 26, 2009
Format: Audio CD
The first knowledge that I have about this project with this gorgeous girl and her stunning voice was given to me by Mr Thom Yorke (Radiohead) who said that this girl had tons of talent and a wonderful album on her hands. Well, i decided to give it a shot and I bought "Two suns" this morning. My personal reaction? Couldn't be more pleased! Natasha Khan has a stunning voice and she makes music in what it seems to be without any doubt: a remarkable singer for a near future. Her voice makes me remember Dolores O'Riordan (Ex Cranberries) by moments but, not even Mrs. O'Riordan sounded so pure and beautiful as Natashe here.

The first track "Glass" is stunning whith some tunes that go beyond simple pop... no way! this girl pushes her boundaries of what she is able to do. Then "Sleep alone" and "Moon and Moon" are simply organic... total extasis while you listen to some acoustic guitar and some piano fading away and coming back with intelligent pop textures through both tracks. "Daniel" on the other hand would be the techno tune that Nataha decided to carry on in the record. "Pearl's dream" is just another beautiful song made to haunt us down through the valleys of happiness, sadness and joy as well.

It's seems that Bat for lashes is a project that tries to sound to a friendlier version of Bjork and eventhough it doesn't get that far, it's still a piece of art that anyone who really wants to discover awesome new singers or bands in the Indie scene should try. I only hope that Natasha Khan keeps on making this kind of music with passion and artistical integrity for many years to come and I really hope that she avoids being swallowed by the all mighty music industry that tries to make music nowadays more commercial and hence, really, really boring. If Thom Yorke told you how great your music was Natasha, you MUST be proud of yourself. Stunning, beautiful album!!!

5.0 out of 5 starsAn orgy of melody!!
By Nse Ette TOP 1000 REVIEWER on April 21, 2009
Format: Audio CD
UK songstress Natasha Khan, better known as Bat For Lashes, comes from the same line of females as Tori Amos, Björk, Kate Bush, or PJ Harvey. "Two suns" is her sophomore disc, follow up to her Mercury prize nominated debut "Fur and gold".

Opening cut "Glass" mentions the album title to insistent beats set against a sweeping New Age/Electro backdrop. She delicately weaves her breathy/desperate vocals around "Sleep alone", ranging from sultry lows to soprano highs against a throbbing soundscape.

The piano-driven ballad "Moon and moon" has a goth feel, while "Daniel" is a gently cinematic song with viola over softly stomping beats. This is my favourite track.

The mood throughout the album is dreamy and melancholic with her vocal histronics never stepping out of bounds. Every song is a standout really: "Peace of mind" (interesting vocal arrangements towards the end), the chiming "Siren song", the buzzing surreal-sounding "Pearl's dream", the breathy ethereal organ driven "Good love", the Björk-like "Two planets" (with chiming bells, hand claps and insistent beats against a skeletal moody backdrop), the piano ballad "Travelling woman", and closing cut the piano ballad "The big sleep", a delicate duet with an Antony Hegarty-sounding Scott Walker.

Intelligent lyrics set to simple, but catchy tunes. Stupendously stunning!

5.0 out of 5 starsOh boy
By Hibernaculum on May 27, 2009
Format: Audio CD
If you were wondering, as I was, whether there would ever be another person even *remotely* like Bjork, Tori Amos or Kate Bush, in terms of integrity and sonic creativity, then wonder no more.

She's here.

Start with "Daniel". It's the most chart-friendly (though in today's barren chartscape, will probably be too lush for the 3-chord ears of many listeners).

If you like that, try "Glass" or "Pearl's Dream". The latter fair knocks my socks off. Sensational!

Thom Yorke is a fan, and Bat For Lashes supported Radiohead on tour a couple of years ago. Everybody should have taken heed.

Have a look at what Natasha is doing here - there's homage to her favourites - from Kate Bush to Dead Can Dance. But what she's created is still truly her own, and is utterly astonishing for it. Songs soar, dive and weave, and are never conventional - even Daniel has an unexpected and catchy chorus. Beauty and power abounds. Drums abound. And she's in control the whole way.

This is the record that makes you realize that most other recent newcomers to this genre, are such pretenders, coiffed by stylists and songwriters, and desperate to be on MTV. Even if she never makes another record like this, we can at least savour this moment.

I hope she never sells out, and continues to delve as deep and thoughtfully for inspiration as she has here. I would gladly wait 10 years for another album such as this.
