recent reviews 'If you are a fan of harmonies
then you will most definitely be a fan of Bilkis' '…quite beautiful, stark,
pared-down harmonic tracks quite unlike anything else I've listened to
this month. There's a kind of devil may care attitude at work here where
tracks stop when you think they will carry on, where vocals harmonies
spiral in all sorts of directions and where guitar parts are and
percussion are only used as an aside to the vocals. Reminiscent of early
PJ Harvey without the obvious angst, this makes for sublime listening.' '
there is a disguised
haunting quality in her low-key folk and expert harmonics
A sharp
balance of ukulele pluck, pinpoint guitar strum, elementary percussion
and programmed sounds complement the gorgeous vocal soak' '
on one level the
songs can be admired for their intuitive craftsmanship and self-awareness
but can also flow with a hypnotic grace that sprinkles some magic to set
the hairs on end
