7. Laura MarlingOnce I Was An Eagle
I think it’s her masterpiece. I’ve liked most of her records but this is just fantastic. The first three or four songs are almost like a suite, they just run into each other. It’s got that dark intensity. She’s a real talent.
A lot of Laura Marling’s stuff is quite skeletal and stripped back, whereas your more recent music has been quite maximal, with a lot happening in it. Would you consider a more minimal approach at any point soon?
In an acoustic way? Nah, not really. It might hold my attention for two or three songs but then I’d want to hear something loud. I like electricity and volume. I like the quiet acoustic thing for a bit, but not for too long. I like noise, me.
