There’s changing your musical direction and then there’s CHANGING YOUR MUSICAL DIRECTION.
VV Brown‘s new album, Samson & Delilah is such a departure from her previous work that it’s hard to believe it comes from the same person. Gone are the bubble gum nostalgic node to 60’s pop sound of Travelling Like a Light, instead it is replaced by gritty throbbing heavy electronics and a more operatic vocal style that some would compare to Grace Jones. The results are fantastic. Absolutely fantastic.
The Apple is one of the singles off the album and it’s a great example of this new direction. It also has a messed up music video (part of a series of videos that VV Brown is releasing). It’s well worth your time to check out.
