Jess Ribeiro is a shape-shifting musical enigma. The near-untouchable quality of her recorded output is astonishingly consistent and the wait for new music is always worthwhile. Ribeiro's 2012 debut album My Little River was an award-winning folk-country masterpiece while her second album (2015's Kill It Yourself) was a slow-burning indie-noire masterpiece which left reviewers scrambling for superlatives. Now, with new album LOVE HATE, Ribeiro has kissed the swampy humidity of the Australian Music Prize-nominated Kill It Yourself goodbye, and embraced the precise down-strokes and valve-amp hum of a very New York lineage, from the Velvets through to Blondie and Talking Heads. Produced by Ben Edwards (Aldous Harding/Marlon Williams), it's capped by those lethally cool vocals for which Ribeiro is revered.On LOVE HATE Ribeiro traverses the landscapes of love it's amorous peaks, it's rough rivers, and it's dark valleys. Much like a concept album - Ribeiro ponders the metamorphisis of the many stages of love -attraction, passion, infatuation, adulation, longing, submissiveness, and madness.1. Stranger2. Chair Stare3.
