Bozulich’s 2002 album Red Headed Stranger illuminated the itinerant art-punk survivor’s exhaustingly immersive world with familiar country and western sounds, but here she’s adrift in an alien landscape of tortured heroin-blues and unstructured torch songs, scarred by industrial noise and collapsing percussion.
There are no simple signposts in this stormy sea, but if Boy emerged from the oeuvre of a broadsheet friendly icon like Nick Cave, Patti Smith or Tom Waits, it would be lauded as an uncompromising work of genius.
