Bat For Lashes On ‘Two Suns’

added 15 April 2009 at 16.17

It may have shocked a few people that Bat For Lashes’ latest album ‘Two Suns’ entered the charts at no.5. Not us. We’d been spellbound by ‘Daniel’ for quite some time and were champing at the bit to hear more of her wondrous songs.

When ‘Two Suns’ finally hit the shelves, it was everything we expected… and way more. Unsurprisingly, John Kennedy quickly pulled Natasha Khan in to X-posure to talk through the making of her latest album.

Listen to the full interview again right here…

Part 1: Natasha talks about her early influences and how her education helped the making of ‘Two Suns’. [Listen To The Full Answer]

Part 2: Opening track ‘Glass’ gets the once over as John wheels out the sympathy for ‘Sleep Alone’. [Listen To The Full Answer]

Part 3: Natasha discusses ‘Moon And Moon’’s last minute addition to the album and the brilliant single, ‘Daniel’. [Listen To The Full Answer]

Part 4: A mini choir turned up for ‘Peace Of Mind’, says Natasha, and ‘Siren Song’ is where she got all mellow. [Listen To The Full Answer]

Part 5: Yeasayer’s Ira Wolf Tuton turns up on ‘Pearl’s Dream’. Natasha also talks about living in New York. [Listen To The Full Answer]

Part 6: Natasha talks about the ballad ‘Good Love’ and ‘Two Planets’. [Listen To The Full Answer]

Part 7: ‘Travelling Woman’ gets the once over and the appearance of Scott Walker on album closer, ‘The Big Sleep’. [Listen To The Full Answer]
