Martha Wainwright's Come Home to Mama, released in 2012 on SOCAN/ASCAP, is disappointing from such a talented artist. "I Wanna Make an Arrest", like other tracks such as "I am Sorry", "Leave Behind" and "Can You Believe" are not lyrically working. Wainwright's voice does not match the songwriting or the music here. In "All Your Clothes", the timing and songwriting attempt thoughtful musical precision. But still, the lyrics won't cooperate musically...

It's become a cliche to describe someone as having been on an emotional rollercoaster, but it's an appropriate one for Martha Wainwright. In the four years since her last studio album, I Know You're Married But I've Got Feelings Too, she's got married, had a baby and lost her mother Kate McGarrigle to cancer. It's these extremes of emotion that are explored on Wainwright's third album, the third to be released by a family member this year...

What's a dramatic singer-songwriter got to do to get noticed if she's Rufus Wainwright's sister? After 2009's live collection of Edith Piaf songs, Sans fusils, ni souliers, à Paris, the Lady Wainwright brought in twitchy producer/multi-instrumentalist Yuka Honda (Cibo Matto) and several of her friends (Sean Lennon, Jim White and Nels Cline) to execute a vexingly atmospheric sound; more provocative and aggressive yet theatrical than any full album the moody Martha has executed to date. Brava.

"Can we pretend we're talking?" asks Martha Wainwright on her new album's standout track, 'All Your Clothes'. "I thought I could donate your clothes to a theatre / Where they would make up a wardrobe of a great play of characters," she whispers over a heartbeat rhythm on a lyric that captures an imagined conversation between Wainwright and her late mother, Kate McGarrigle...

I remember Martha when she began her career by riding in on the coattails of her much more famous older brother (Rufus) and fairly famous musical parents' music careers (Anna & Kate McGarrigle and Loudon Wainwright, respectively). Fortunately for her, she was monumentally talented that having to sit through her opening set before the main attraction (usually Rufus Wainwright) came on was never a chore...

Goto commentsLeave a commentShare Family Ties As America climbs and claws its way toward election day, the power and importance of family has become something to soapbox about: Family is this! Family should be that! But no one in the world expresses the power of family as beautifully as a Wainwright can. Martha Wainwright's new record, Come Home to Mama, illustrates the deep and intricate tangle of those whom she is connected to by blood and by love...

With her third full studio album Come Home to Mama, the younger of music's most beige siblings (Wainwright is the younger sister of musician Rufus Wainwright) since Oasis continues to settle nicely into Canada's throne of easy-listening bland-pop vacated all those years ago now by Shania Twain...

Martha Wainwright has never shied away from writing songs about the people closest to her. But it's one thing to reflect on adolescent tiffs with your parents, or berate errant lovers; another to address the early death of your mother and the effects on marriage or childbirth. Wainwright's vocals might be dressy but her thoughts are naked, heartbreakingly so on All Your Clothes, a graveside conversation with Kate McGarrigle...

Since her arresting self-titled debut of 2005, Martha Wainwright has continued to captivate and baffle by turns. This third outing was recorded with Yuka C Honda, formerly of New York quirk-pop outfit Cibo Matto, and the resulting sonics are engagingly offbeat. The songs, meanwhile, tackle the passing of the baton of motherhood following the birth of Wainwright's son and the death of her mother, Kate McGarrigle...
