Tori Amos - American Doll Posse

In an era of digital downloads and singles, Tori Amos embraces the concept album in a sprawling 23-song oratorio American Doll Posse. Firing across the American psychological, social, and political landscape, she takes on the state of the world, war, and feminism.

Amos adopts a big '80s rock sound on many tracks, with guitarist Mac Aladdin pealing off Brian May-style guitar licks over an arena-rock beat.

It's where Amos details a more personal sound that American Doll Posse leaves a lasting impression. Girl Disappearing, sung by 'Clyde,' holds echoes of the Beatles' Eleanor Rigby, not only because of the string quartet and nostalgic tone, but the updated tale of a woman losing herself.
