Our Take

Brigid Dawson & The Mothers Network's latest offering, "Ballet of Apes," is a delightful cacophony of sonic experimentation and musical prowess. Dawson, best known for her work with Thee Oh Sees, has truly come into her own with this eclectic album.

From the opening track, "Is the Season for New Incarnations," listeners are treated to a mystical journey through Dawson's lyrical dreamscapes. The album is a veritable feast for the ears, with layers of psychedelic guitar riffs and haunting vocal harmonies that transport you to another dimension.

Tracks like "Carletta's in Hats Again" and "Heart and Soul" showcase Dawson's ability to seamlessly blend elements of garage rock, folk, and punk into a cohesive sound that is uniquely her own. The Mothers Network provide a solid foundation for Dawson's ethereal vocals, creating a mesmerizing backdrop for her introspective lyrics.

While some may find the album's avant-garde tendencies challenging, those with an adventurous spirit will be rewarded with a truly transformative listening experience. "Ballet of Apes" is a bold statement from an artist who is unafraid to push boundaries and defy expectations.

In conclusion, Brigid Dawson & The Mothers Network have delivered a masterful work of art that is both thought-provoking and utterly captivating. "Ballet of Apes" is a must-listen for anyone with a penchant for the experimental and the avant-garde.
