Kristin Hersh - Possible Dust Clouds
Released in 2018, Possible Dust Clouds is the tenth solo album from by Kristin Hersh (Throwing Muses, 50 Foot Wave), and is a highly personalised sociopathic gem delivered as a futuristic rewriting of how music works, a melodious breeze with a tail wind of venomous din. Enveloping the juxtaposition of the concept of ‘dark sunshine’, a brooding solo record created with friends to expand her off-kilter sonic vision; a squally, squeaky mix of discordant beauty. Feedback and phasing gyrate from simply strummed normality, imagine Dinosaur Jr and My Bloody Valentine cranking up a Dylan couplet. Possible Dust Clouds is a glorious return to form for one of alternative rock’s true innovators.

“She's still as powerful a presence as she ever was” - Pitchfork
“The prodigious output and commitment to quality is pretty staggering, but then Kristin Hersh is a very, very special musician” - The Quietus
“Throwing Muses became a byword for college-rock feminism in the late 80s, largely because of Hersh’s uncompromising impressionist poetry of emotional anguish, subjugated womanhood and mental illness” - The Guardian
