Charlotte Gainsbourg - IRM (2009/2010 in US and UK)
Let me be honest... I am not terribly familiar with Charlotte Gainsbourg. I know that she's a French actress and singer/songwriter. I know that she collaborated with Air on her last album. I know that Beck was the producer on this one. That's about as far as my Charlotte Gainsbourg knowledge extends.
Nonetheless, one of the tracks from this release ("Heaven Can Wait" - the actual duet with Beck) caught my attention about a week ago and immediately put me in search of more. I ended up with the entire album. Pretty good stuff overall. I felt like it did pretty much everything that a good pop album should do, and it succeeded in making me want to actually hear more from this artist. In general, Beck fans would probably enjoy the album as a whole. His involvement is quite apparent throughout the album with at least one or two tracks sounding oddly familiar.
