Hopelessness - Anohni
Antony and the Johnsons was a band I didn’t like. I get it Hope There’s Someone is a pretty good song, but I have to be frank their lead singer’s Anohni’s voice just put me off. It wasn’t bad necessarily but to me it overwhelmed all other aspects of the band, and it simply didn’t appeal to me. So Hopelessness by Anohni wasn’t something I listened to with high expectations however I’ve always thought that it was me with something wrong rather than Abohni so I did quietly hope the album would be great. It wasn’t, it started fine and I almost thought it would be a incredibly good art pop album but past Watch Me the songs sort of stop being even mediocre and become boring. The album cover of Anohni's debut solo album. I’ve never been someone who believes in a divorce between music and politics and I understand that Anohni has some unique viewpoints as transgendered musicians, who aren’t usually heard in our society, but to me it simply overstepped the line bet...
