Hurricane
Grace Jones
Wall of Sound

She’s back. At the age of 60 Grace Jones is set to rock the music industry again with her first release in nearly 20 years, the whirlwind that is Hurricane. Lead single off this new album is Corporate Cannibal, an incredibly intense and moody song which hungers in a sultry manner, the remixes to which are out of this world. Elsewhere Williams’ Blood is anthemic, uplifting and joyfully exuberant while Well Well Well surges with Jamaican influences. The entire album is a fusion of reggae fun and an ’80s onslaught or wall of sound. It’s a rich, solid bombastic return, one which sees Jones lose no ground in the 20 years she’s been gone.
