Our Take

Ah, Tori Amos - the queen of piano ballads and emotional rollercoasters. Little Earthquakes, her 1992 debut album, is a journey through the depths of her soul, with each track serving as a confession of her innermost thoughts and feelings.

From the haunting opener "Crucify" to the raw vulnerability of "Silent All These Years," Amos showcases her incredible vocal range and ability to evoke powerful emotions in her listeners. The standout track, "Me and a Gun," is a chilling a cappella recounting of her experience with sexual assault, highlighting her bravery and resilience.

Amos' unique blend of piano-driven melodies and introspective lyrics sets her apart from her peers in the alternative music scene. Her ability to seamlessly intertwine elements of rock, pop, and classical music creates a sonic landscape that is both captivating and deeply personal.

While some may find Little Earthquakes to be a bit too melancholic or self-indulgent, Amos' honesty and authenticity shine through in every note. This album is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates raw, unfiltered storytelling and beautiful piano compositions.

Overall, Tori Amos' Little Earthquakes is a mesmerising debut that solidifies her status as a musical icon. With its heartfelt lyrics and haunting melodies, this album will leave you in awe of Amos' talent and deeply connected to her emotional journey. A true masterpiece.
