Having thus excluded conversation and desisted from study, he had neither business nor amusement. His ideas, therefore, being neither renovated by discourse nor increased by reading, wore gradually away, till at last his anger congealed into madness.

Laurie Anderson-Homeland
‘Homeland,’ long awaited in recorded form, has evolved over more than two years of touring as Anderson developed the songs in front of concertgoers around the world, from downtown clubs in Manhattan to an amphitheatre in Athens, Greece. In Artforum, Anderson summarized the songs as ‘one-third politics, one-third pure music, and one-third strange dreams.’ The work was shaped more by humanity than by technology; Anderson built an intimate rapport with her audience during a show that featured a shifting set-list of new material and relied on words and music far more than visual and theatrical effects. That intimacy is just as palpable in the songs that evolved to make up her new album.. The Guardian said ”Homeland’ represents some of the most purely beautiful music she has ever made.’ In the States, Daily Variety declared, ‘The music that accompanies the vignettes and songs is some of the loveliest that Anderson has ever written …Like the narratives it accompanies, the sound’s grave but not without wit; measured and dispassionate, but not without heart.’
