3rd studio album by Laura Marling following I Speak Because I Can (Mar. 2010). I think, I like this one the most but it's hard to describe the big difference from her so far three studio albums. I guess, I like this better because she doesn't sound too much like wannabe Joni Mitchell folk singers and also because the music is really narrowed down to center around her vocal accompanied by guitar with scarce or hardly much other instrumentation, which just emphasizes her stories and fine vocal.
