The phantom zone, the parallax, the upside down - ��there is a rich cultural history of exploring in-between places. Through her latest, Titanic Rising, Weyes Blood, a.k.a. Natalie Mering, has designed her own universe to soulfully navigate life'��s mysteries. Maneuvering through a space-time continuum, she plays the role of melodic, sometimes melancholic, anthropologist.
Tellingly, Mering classifies Titanic Rising -�� which was written and recorded during the first half of 2018, after three albums and years of touring - as the Kinks meet WWII or Bob Seger meets Enya. The latter captures the album'��s wilful expansiveness ("You can tell there'��s not a guy pulling the strings in Enya'��s studio,"�� she notes, admiringly). The former relays her imperative to connect with listeners. "�The clarity of Bob Seger is unmistakable. I'�m a big fan of conversational songwriting," she adds. "��I just try to do that in a way that uses abstract imagery as well."��
