New Jenny Hval album - "never closer to a universal truth"

Norwegian avant-garde artist Jenny Hval has a new album out, called 'The Practice of Love', and the critics like it a lot: "If she’s often felt to have been speaking from on high, Hval has never been more purely human" - The 405; "transcendental beauty" - The Independent; "some fierce poetry and song" - Clash Music; "engages the hearts and minds of her listeners fully" - All Music; "pushes Hval towards her most emotionally vulnerable" - Pitchfork (selected the album for their Best New Music banner).
