[bLisa Knapp is a folk singer, yet the F-word can't encompass the ambition of this second album, parts of which would fit on a Björk record: "avant-folk", maybe. Largely self-written, it's much shaped by producer Gerry Diver (Knapp's husband), who mixes electro-lite touches with tinkling acoustics, and on Seagiver and Hidden Seam elaborate strings and charging drums, providing a brooding backdrop for Knapp's vocal gymnastics. The Shipping Song elaborates the maritime spell of Radio 4's shipping forecast, Two Ravens is a mournful look at Alzheimer's, while tradition shines brightly on Hunt the Hare, a larkish duet with Alasdair Roberts. A masterful creation.[/b]
