    Only rarely is one privileged to be carried away by a record so beautifully absorbed with its own vision.

    Innocence Is Kinky is a remarkable album, one which delves beneath the surface and returns with something both seductive and strange.

    It may be difficult to listen to, and even harder to stomach, but there is great reward in focusing on what happens in this deceptively hushed landscape that Hval has built, because for all its use of soft atmospherics and gentle, eiderdown-laced vocals, the album ultimately betrays the implication of a lifetime of misuse beneath its soothing dulcet tones and restrained palettes.
