More Info:

Aimee's seventh solo release to date. The album is a return to form after the artistic detours of 2005's concept album The Forgotten Arm and 2006's Christmas CD One More Drifter in the Snow. Featuring thirteen new original songs, producer Paul Bryan describes the record as "deceptively powerful...very rich and grand-sounding."

Reviews:

After the Magnolia soundtrack, we assumed that Aimee Mann would be a pop radio staple for the next 20 years. Of course, her deeply personal laments were imbued with more meaning in the context of the film, and we all sorta wound up ignoring Mann without Tom Cruise singing her lyrics. Big mistake. She's proven to be a creative lyricist and composer. Expect a sea change from guitars to synths on this latest effort.
