3... 2... 1... Blasko!

○○○●●

SINGER songwriter Sarah Blasko has been dubbed Girldiohead - and although there's not a guitar riff or electronic experimentation in sight, her new LP As Day Follows Night shows you why.
Because Australian pianist Blasko, like Thom Yorke et al, comes across as miserable as a damp bloodhound at times.
However just like mardy old Radiohead, it's not necessarily a bad thing - there's plenty of gentle orchestral gorgeousness here, and Blasko has an enchanting breathy loveliness to her vocals - but As Day Follows Night could still do with a little more light and shade over the LP's run for my liking.
