2 stars While I understand that writing and performing might be cathartic for many if not most artists, I am not in favor if it necessitates behavioral health intervention for the listener. On this, her third album, LARKIN GRIMM takes a few strides forward in imparting her wacky wisdom in a more musical fashion but too many tracks remain impenetrable except for a certain unpleasant sensation in the cervical vertebrae. Luckily, the more "conventional" title track, the atypically joyous "Link in Your Chain", and the geographically proximal "Rocky Tap" all hit the mark and hint at future directions. Along with a few near misses, they don't quite compensate for the likes of 4 or 5 others of scream therapy, most egregious is the aptly titled but otherwise best dismissed "The Most Excruciating Vibe". Still hoping for an elusive 3 star sapling to sprout.
