280/365 - Another New CD - Tiger Suit by KT Tunstall

I generally don't buy new music completely "unheard", unless the music is from an artist I admire. Lucky for me, two of my favorite artists released new CDs in the last 4 weeks. Sara Bareilles released her beautiful sophomore "Kaleidoscope Heart" in the beginning of September and last week, KT Tunstall's "Tiger Suit" was finally released in the US (the lucky UK got it a week earlier).



I've been listening to the CD in the car since Wednesday morning. This album is certainly KT's most upbeat, with hardly a slow song. I like the rhythmic beat that weaves throughout, giving the entire album an African feel, of course fitting for the album's namesake. My only complaint, is why KT feels she needs to make a "Black Horse and Cherry Tree" wanna be track on each of her albums. It was "Hold On" on Drastic Fantastic, and for this album, "Come On, Get In" just sounds like more of the same. But one small song is a minor thing to complain about, I guess.

Tracks that have made an impression -
Difficulty (the lyrics here make you think)
Glamour Puss (totally rocking fun)
Fade Like a Shadow
