Cat Power


An mp3 of Chan Marshall's He War (via ToT) from her new album You Are Free which is scheduled for release on February, 18th, 2003. A return to form after the rather disappointing Covers Album? This track is less depressive and more upbeat than her usual songs.

Names, track #11 on You Are Free

reviewed by Pitchfork's Ryan Schreiber on January, 21st:

... Lyrically, "Names" is absolutely vapid-- even predictable-- running through the stories of five abused and wronged children Marshall remembers from her school days with the sparest biographical information possible. Yet, there's an incredible depth to Chan's voice, which here sounds at once detached and maternal, shrugging off these tragedies as part of the everyday, yet clearly caring so deeply...
