#2437 Ruth - Polaroid/Roman/Photo

The cover's uncomfortable organic/not claustrophobia sums things up pretty well - when this isn't vibrating with icy intensity, it's outright probing and squealing and rubbing against you inappropriately. French musings wisp over broken-synth plods, a GVB song's steel skeleton. She Brings the Rain's the highlight, making its sexy menace explicit over sulking bass and Velvet guitars.

Fascinating in flashes, but it's an anxious, unbearable marathon by the time the 10-minute go-nowhere closer winds down 2.5/5
