A bewitching performer, Gibbons tends to evoke strong feelings. There are those who will encounter Out of Season and dismiss it as posturing; others will lose themselves in Rustin Man's atmospheric soundtrack, particularly on the moody orchestral ballad "Romance," and simply ignore her. But she is undoubtedly the centerpiece of the album, channeling its dark, dreamy energy down oft-unexplored paths. Fragments of her words reverberate in your memory long after the album ends with the final track, "Rustin Man," her voice echoing, "I can't deny this is you again."
