Album Notes & Community Reviews

The punk poet laureate's ninth studio album serves as a poignant, politically charged reflection on early 2000s global conflicts. Combining her signature spoken-word poetry with sprawling, improvisational rock instrumentation, the record heavily features intricate guitar work from longtime collaborator Lenny Kaye.
