Keaton Henson's Fragments EP was made as a companion piece to last year's Monument. Written and recorded at the same time, the lyrical themes and subjects may stray from Monument's poignant subject matter, but in it's sound and atmosphere, it feels suitably entwined. The eight tracks orbit a sweeping kaleidoscope of sonic shapes, shades and textures. Keaton's voice offers lyrics in an almost frozen romanticism. It's a voice that sounds rooted in turmoil, but also in strength. Julien Baker shares a mic from across the ocean in Australia on "Marionette". A songwriter of due reverence herself, Baker and Keaton share an affinity with the power of hushed words, fizzing melodies, and an innate wisdom. Fragments EP and Monument are two fine bodies of work by this singular, unique British artist, and two empathetic records of sorrow and strength.
