Moon Pix by Cat Power

Moon Pix, Cat Power's fourth album, came out on Matador in September 1998, and it very nearly didn't happen: Chan Marshall had been planning to quit music. Then came a hallucinatory nightmare at a farmhouse in South Carolina, and she wrote most of the record in a single night.
She cut it in Melbourne with two members of the Australian instrumental band Dirty Three, Mick Turner on guitar and Jim White on drums, and they wrap her songs in a slow, haunted drift, all space and shadow around that smoky, wounded voice. "Cross Bones Style" still stands out. The first reviews were polite rather than rapturous, but its standing has only grown, and in 2022 Pitchfork put it at number 66 among the best albums of the '90s.
