If you value your hearing, do yourself a favour and don't sit too close to your speakers when the album starts or
Galás' version of
Swing Low, Sweet Chariot may take it from you. It flows sharply into the second track, which begins the transformation into a more traditional album with actual music! She still howls like a banshee when necessary, to get the point across, but its gospel influenced weirdness is more accessible than the two accompanying albums that preceded
YMBCotD. Although, she sounds like she’s dying on the closing track, which is somewhat unsettling.
