Kimbra - A Reckoning

 

New 2023 release from the New Zealand pop singer-songwriter

Includes the singles "Save Me," "Replay" and "Foolish"

"Even though Kimbra fans know to expect the unexpected, A Reckoning proves she can still surprise. As she views the turbulence of the early 2020s through a personal lens, questioning relationships, identity, and the world at large, she creates moods that are distinctly different from any of her previous work." 4/5 stars, AllMusic

A Reckoning is primed to be a reflective record exploring themes of vitality and aggression through channeling anger and protest, into forces for good. Kimbra seeks to highlight both the role of the Feminine and the archetype of a Mother in restoring balance amongst people, the planet and our internal reckoning with conflict. A Reckoning hints that our greatest tool toward peace, change and equality is the allowance of pain, and the transformation it creates. It's the most sonically autonomous and confessionally raw she has ever been, finding influence in everything from movie soundtracks to electronic, R&B and industrial soundworlds.

The album was first imagined in 2018, during Kimbra's tour with co-producer Ryan Lott of the band Son Lux, who scored A24's Everything Everywhere All At Once.
