    a lesser version of Bat For Lashes. Don't bother. The music has some nice tones and beats, but her vocals are inferior and the music gets repetitive and the lyrical content is lacking.

    SVIIB is a fitting eulogy for a musician and a band ever connected with both.

    If this is to be the band’s swansong, they’ve left behind something timeless and quite beautiful.
