If you took the lyrical stylings of Emily Saliers, combined them with the passionate melodies of Sarah McLachlan, and then gave them a raw edge, you might be close to the sound of Jinny Kim. Her debut, full-length album, Finding Ophelia, is complex maze of musical lines and emotional themes. It is Kims self-proclaimed musical diary, a rendering of her personal journey, which we travel the length of through the songs. The theme of the record centers around Hamlets Ophelia, a woman troubled by her deep capacity to feel and love. In Jinnys lyrics, we can sense the brink of Ophelias poetic madness. But, unlike Ophelia, the singer-songwriter overcomes alienation, finding solace in her spirituality.Finding Ophelia is a collection of titanic ballads. The songs are emotional, haunting, sometimes unconventional, but never clich. It is a record filled with complex sonic lines - a labyrinth of piano, violin, and electric guitars, all brought to an apex in Jinnys gripping vocals. Producer Koo Chung has, yet again, brought together an ensemble cast of musicians who artfully contrive the amplitude of Kims passion. Weve come to expect quality from Broken For Good Records, and Finding Ophelia does not disappoint. Try the title track, Ophelia (..9) for a taste of Jinnys compelling sound.
