Weekly pull from the new stack. Thought it would come out a little higher and I'm sure it would get there
after more plays. Music reminds me a lot of Mumford & Sons. I just typed that before I see that lead
singer Marcus Mumford provides some backing vocals. This is Laura's second album and I didn't even know
she has had one since. Laura is much bigger in the UK than here, as this album debuted at #4 over there,
Peaked at #7 in Australia, and did not even chart here. Opening track was the best for me with Darkness
Descends the only thing I didn't like. What's up with that chic on the cover? Not Marla, and she certainly
has some anorexic issues.
