Joanna Newsom "Ys"
...the meteorite is the source of the light, and the meteor is just what we see. the meteoroid is a stone that's devoid of the fire that propelled it to thee.

Observer Music Monthly - 5/5 - Ys is an exceptional piece of art in the broadest sense - give it the chance to grow on you.
Pitchfork - 4.8/5 - The people who hear this record will split into two crowds: The ones who think it's silly and precious, and the ones who, once they hear it, won't be able to live without it.
Uncut - 5/5 - For the 56 minutes that "Ys" lasts, all the doubts evaporate. Every elaboration has a purpose, every labyrinthine melodic detour feels necessary rather than contrived. Tempting as it is to fixate on the gilded reputations of her associates, this is unequivocally Newsom’s album.
