Album Review: Katie Dey - Flood Network

StarStarStarHalf Star

"[Dey] is from another dimension."

Katie Dey might say she's from Melbourne, but her music says she's from another dimension; some kind of musical twilight zone where conventional ideas about harmony and sound don't exist.

Flood Network might just be the most surreal thing you'll hear all year. At times Dey appears to be stretching for something that she hasn't quite figured out how to grasp yet. But when it all falls together, such as on the outro to Debt, her brain-rewiring songs plug into emotional levels other artists probably aren't even aware of.
