Sacred Bones
Producers: Anika Henderson and Martin Thulin
With her alluring synthesis of dub, electronica, and avant-garde cacophony, British/German noisemaker Annika Henderson, aka Anika, creates beguiling atmospherics. As a former political journalist, she’s determined to take a stand on hot button issues, and that’s obviously to be commended. Unfortunately, her lyrics feel clunky. While speaking up is a respectable goal and has been, in fact, a vital musical component (see Public Enemy, Woody Guthrie), the song can’t be forgotten.
