Album Review: You Heartbreaker, You by Jehnny Beth
Very Good, Based on 2 Critics
Based on rating 7/10
From Savages to her solo work the painful intensity she wrings out of her music marries trauma and survival with a stark, artistic clarity. Seeking answers through reinvention. Beth sets the visceral tone here again beginning with a scream. A declaration announcing she's back, and clearly she's not here to offer comfort.
Opinion: Very Good
Jehnny Beth returns with her second solo album, ‘You Heartbreaker, You’, out via Fiction Records. The new album follows on from 2021's ‘Utopian Ashes’ with Primal Scream frontman Bobby Gillespie, which took listeners through the slow parting of a married couple, as they revel in the loneliness of a failing love. ‘You Heartbreaker, You’ is starkly different.
