GRAHAM DUFF’S EPIC BEST ALBUMS OF 2015 MEGA-POST

A perfect late night album, AnnaBel (Lee)’s debut is a seductive set of spectral beauty, created by gifted producer and arranger Richard E and vocalist Annabel. There’s a pleasingly woozy, out of focus feeling to songs such as “Invisible Barriers” and “Could It Be The Siren Loves?,” with Annabel’s emotive voice recalling the bruised grace of a young Billie Holliday. Meanwhile, Richard E’s production conjures up a grainy, isolated world, where a haunting hybrid of lush strings, electronic beats and acoustic instrumentation vie for breathing space. It might take a few listens for the joy of this album to kick in, but when it does, you’ll find yourself surrendering to AnnaBel (Lee)’s opiated torch songs and abstracted downtempo tunes.
