FKA Twigs' 'Caprisongs' is an unbridled thrill. Read our review of the avant-pop star's brilliant new mixtape.
Caprisongs
such an epic thrill. Twigs is still excising some pain, but she’s uninhibited and out of fucks to give, choosing instead to center herself, her friends, and her joy as she finds release in sounds pulled from cavernous clubs and euphoric dancefloors from London to Jamaica. Throughout her career, Twigs has morphed R&B wisps and electronic abstractions into highly visual concept art, and although the music onis her most buoyant, she doesn’t sacrifice her creative nonconformity or intimacy.
Twigs’ artistry is deeply physical, tied to her athleticism as a performer, so it’s not really a shock that her impulse is to sweat away any badness still lingering in her bones. “Wanna dance you out of my, gotta dance you out of my hips, my thighs, my wrongs, my rights,” she sings on “Tears In The Club,” where she’s joined by fellow pop eccentric The Weeknd.
Twigs follows each piece of advice to ecstatic ends. And considering the dark, daunting times we’re all living through, seeing her break loose is all the more inspiring.
