Capsule review: Kate Bush - Aerial (2005)


A sky and a sea of honey - she knows she risks drowning in syrup. A sea of honey runs the training wheel of British art-rock tropes, unimpressively. (Elvis lives! Numbers! Household appliances are sexy! I want to disappear!) A sky of honey is rarefied. A musical version of To The Lighthouse, except no conflict or tension, just staring at a painting in the rain. Quite wonderful.
Household appliances still not sexy anywhere but Great Britain.
