This album truly feels like crawling into the mind and exploring the deepest thoughts of a demented woman who has been wronged by society. It is one of the most fascinating and unsettling albums I have listened to. The album is very soft and may not hit right if just played in the background but once I started paying close attention to what she was saying and what was going on, I became obsessed with the album.
