The Enemy of Love

Her second full-length solo album can be summed up in a phrase once coined by Time Out NY magazine to describe her label, Merge Records: this record is the sound of "indie rock aging gracefully". Annie's current batch of songs arrive with fewer jagged edges than the music of her former band, Spent. With a fantastic cover of The Replacements' "Swingin' Party" and primarily piano-based tunes, "The Enemy Of Love" will fit neatly in your record collection alongside Camera Obscura, Fleetwood Mac, and Norah Jones. It will ease you into the longer nights of autumn and soothe you throughout the winter.
