Bat For Lashes' excellent new album Two Sons has plenty gorgeous stuff on it. For instance, we showed you an earlier live incarnation of "Moon On Moon." If I had to choose favorites, though, I'd point to those Chippendale drums and general windblown feel of opener "Glass," the chilly, running-in-the-dark dance-floor love song "Daniel," and Natasha Khan's ghostly, spare "it's curtains down time" duet with Scott Walker, "The Big Sleep." Fittingly, the latter's the closer ... because (a) it's about saying goodbye and voices fading and (b) it would be difficult following up a guest spot, however brief, from a vocal genius.

It’s hard to say who even thinks up ideas like this, but the forthcoming compilation Body Of Songs will collect examples of different artists singing about different parts of the body. The concept has something to do with medical science, but “Skin Song,” the contribution from Bat For Lashes, doesn’t exact...

Over the weekend, I got to see Bat For Lashes at Sweden’s Way Out West festival, and Natasha Khan was a marvel: Warm, confident, in ridiculously fine vocal form, able to rock a nutso flowery pantsuit without looking like a clown. I did not, however, get to see her cover the Fleetwood Mac witch-rock classic [...]
