Dripping in literary references – from album titles to her adopted moniker – Natalie Mering’s music is a haunting, powerful thing where the fragility of sparse arrangements rubs up against the brutal truth told by her lyrics. Predominantly borrowing from old (medieval old) English folk traditions, her second album The Innocents (released on Mexican Summer) is warped at the edges, pulled into off-kilter shapes by subtle distortions and transitional effects, a nod to her love of tapes and four-track recorders. A weather sensitive Mering recently declared that her work’s ‘creepiness… is only as intentional as you think it is’. Time to stop overthinking this and enjoy.
