"...she could just as easily be the result of a steamy union in the capital some time in the early-90s between Polly Harvey and Nick Cave. That's the lineage to which her dark tales of lust and loss, revenge and regret belong, although she also cites as influences everyone from Philip Larkin and Frida Kahlo to Interpol and Arthur Russell (something in the tremulousness of her voice bears the latter out) as well as the religious Sufi songs that her father would play during car rides and the ghazals he sang in Urdu around the house. Think also Marianne Faithfull, not the prim young creature courted by Mick Jagger in the mid-60s but the ravaged, battle-worn survivor who re-emerged with Broken English in the late 70s." The Guardian
