Bertie Blackman - Pope Innocent X

Adventurous, thrilling, and undeniably unique: that's Pope Innocent X, the latest and fourth album by singer/songwriter Bertie Blackman. The long-awaited follow-up to 2009's acclaimed Secrets and Lies. Pope Innocent X is 11 tracks of visual, evocative storytelling: spiky, fertile pop ("Mercy Killer") blended with electrifying sonic tales and other-worldly, dark dares. It's a mix all Blackman's own, assisted by producer/composer Francois 'Franc' Tetaz (Gotye, Architecture in Helsinki, Sally Seltmann), as she forges into brand new musical territory yet again, with stunning results.
