FKA twigs is already so fully developed as an artist that her voice—wispy, breathy, disarmingly operatic—can sometimes be overshadowed by her astonishing performances. They function as demonstrations of her dancer’s command of her body, living art installations, and full-spectrum auditory experience—together, something like live 4DX. LP1, her first full-length, alluded to the expansive visionary she'd soon become, twisting her nimble voice over a textured palette of glitchy beats and sweeping synths.

LP1 often sounds mournful, upended by her propensity for minor keys, and a notion of sexuality that was widely ascribed to its songs that may not have been explicitly about sex. This interpretation may have been partly because of how twigs carries herself—a generously candid musician and sinewy dancer—but is also attributable to the complex ways she delves into such topics as autonomy, aloneness, and sensuality in a holistic sense. Lead single "Two Weeks" may have been a break-up song lyrically, but the way she dives into it—vocal cadences interplaying with triple-time bass—elevates it into something like a triumphant prose poem to herself. Released in a crowded year for British experimental electronics, twigs' sense of drama pushed the landscape of heady dancefloor tracks into a blissfully corporeal space. –Julianne Escobedo Shepherd

FKA twigs已经是一名全面发展的成熟艺术家了。她的声音纤细、有呼吸感、带有令人放松的歌剧质感，虽然这些优点有时会被她惊人的表演所掩盖。它们的功能是展示这位舞者对她身体的有力掌控，灵活的艺术装置，和全谱的听觉体验——合在一处即可带来4D影院般的效果。《LP1》是她的第一首标准长度专辑，在动感的节奏和横扫一切的合成器上灵活跳动的轻快嗓音，暗示了她很快就会成为一个坦坦荡荡的梦想家。《LP1》经常听起来很悲伤，但会被她对小调的偏爱所颠覆。还有一种性的概念广泛存在于歌曲中，然而也并没有得到明确的解释。部分解释可能来自于twigs表达她自己的方式——一个慷慨直率的音乐家和强壮有力的舞者——但一种原因也可能是她在整体意义上对自主性、孤独和性感等主题的复杂探索。主打歌《Two Weeks（两周）》在歌词上可能属于一首分手歌曲，但她深入其中的方式——与三次低音相互配合的声乐节奏——使它升华成一首胜利的散文诗。在英国实验电子学扎堆的一年里，twigs发行了这张专辑，其戏剧感将令人陶醉的舞池音乐推向了一个幸福的空间。
