The result of two months of excursions deep into Lapland, Polaar is itself an illustration of a journey, both in the literal sense and figuratively, as it marks Maud Geffray's true debut as a solo artist. With unsettling rhythms, melancholic keyboards, and poignant choirs, Polaar is a burning album that disturbs as much as it fascinates, soothes as much as it unsettles.
