"Fiona Apple packs in more interpersonal danger, impassioned candor and radical tenderness than artists with triple her catalog. Whatever's lacking in quantity is exceeded in payload."
"Apple's songs invite us back to the euphoria of attraction and the nausea of repulsion. The heart in her music seems like a place one resides."
"During the first spring of the pandemic, she once again emerged, this time from an eight-year absence, with Fetch the Bolt Cutters, which is also the name of the album's third song."
"Apple was a teenager when she made her debut in 1996. She spoke her mind in a way that tends to turn women's new fame into notoriety."
Fiona Apple has released only 56 original songs across five albums in 30 years, yet her work is rich in emotional complexity and personal insight. Her music captures the duality of love, exploring both attraction and repulsion. Apple's lyrics reflect her journey of self-discovery and growth, often emerging from periods of struggle. Her latest album, Fetch the Bolt Cutters, symbolizes a transformative moment in her life, emphasizing the importance of shedding burdens and embracing change. Apple's unique voice and perspective continue to resonate deeply with listeners.
