Issue 413

Tori Amos
American Doll Posse
Epic/Sony BMG



There's probably not much more frightening than finding out an album you're about to listen to is a concept album based on the five facets of a singer's personality - that would be the titular posse, you see. There's Isabel, the outwardly political photographer; Clyde, the idealistic but wounded one; Pip, the confrontational one; Santa, the sensual, passionate one; and, finally, Tori herself: "the mother". It's a way to show other women that "they have their own version of the compartmentalized feminine which may have been repressed this in each one of them". Oh, and they've all got counterpoints in ancient Greek mythology. Scared yet?
