Review

Kimbra's "Vows" is a masterpiece that showcases her incredible vocal range and creative depth. This album is a fusion of different genres, including indie pop, soul, jazz, and art pop, which is evident in tracks like "Settle Down" and "Two Way Street". Kimbra's influences are diverse, ranging from Björk to Rufus Wainwright, and this mix of styles is what makes "Vows" so unique. The album's blend of jazz-scatted a cappella and urban croon is utterly captivating. With "Vows", Kimbra proves herself to be a talented and innovative artist.

The album explores themes of love, loss, and relationships, with lyrics that are both introspective and poetic. Kimbra's statement about vows saying a lot about who you are, and even more when we choose to break them, sums up the album's conceptual core. The album spawned several notable singles, including "Settle Down", "Cameo Lover", and "Good Intent", with "Cameo Lover" winning an ARIA Award. Other standout tracks include "Plain Gold Ring", inspired by Nina Simone, and "Warrior", a collaboration with Mark Foster and A-Trak. "Vows" is an album that pushes the boundaries of pop music while maintaining a unique and engaging sound, and it's a testament to Kimbra's talent and creative vision. - Ivy
