Short Movie is the one Marling record where her Mitchell & Drake worship was the most evident to me - damn shame it's also evident she isn't as talented as these two, but then who really is?

My first experience with Laura Marling and on average apparently her least liked album by the masses; that makes me excited. Pleasant the first time around and something that grew on me rather quickly. Goofy lyrics from time to time but most of the tracks display strength in the vocals, guitar work and production. Her spoken word sounded a bit pretentious in the first go around but it soon became a strength adding some variety to the heavily folk rock feel of the album. The variation between electric and acoustic sounds bodes very well and accompanies the roller coaster of energy from confident tracks like False Hope to quiet tracks like Walk Alone. Greatness in False Hope, Walk Alone, Don't let Me Bring You Down and Gurdjieff's Daughter with good tracks surrounding those. A great brunch-making, Saturday morning mood.

Why would an artist with a really good voice decide it's more fun to talk half of the time instead of sing, and when singing get off the tune most of the time? Baffling. As much as I've enjoyed 'I Speak Because I Can', I felt no inspiration at all in this album.
I hope on her next record she will sing, because she can.

An album that showed tremendous promise, weighed down by pretentious posturing that's upheld by weak melodies and okay lyrics.
