Our Take
The Unthanks have truly outdone themselves with their latest album, The Songs and Poems of Molly Drake. This record is like stumbling upon a hidden gem in a dusty old record shop, only to discover that it's actually made of solid gold. Molly Drake, mother of the legendary Nick Drake, may have stayed relatively unknown in her lifetime, but her hauntingly beautiful songs and poems have finally been brought to light by The Unthanks. From the moment the delicate piano notes of "How Wild the Wind Blows" kick in, you know you're in for something special. The Unthanks' ethereal vocals perfectly capture the wistful melancholy of Molly Drake's lyrics, transporting you to a bygone era of rainy afternoons and crackling fireplaces. But don't be fooled by the gentle melodies and timeless folk arrangements – this album packs an emotional punch that will leave you reeling. Tracks like "Never Pine for the Old Love" and "What Can a Song Do to You?" showcase Molly Drake's raw, unfiltered emotion, while The Unthanks bring them to life with their trademark harmonies and impeccable musicianship. In a world full of cookie-cutter pop stars and soulless chart-toppers, The Unthanks and Molly Drake stand out like a rare bloom in a field of weeds. The Songs and Poems of Molly Drake is a true testament to the power of music to transcend time and space, and should not be missed by any discerning listener. So do yourself a favour and press play – your ears will thank you.
