There Will Be No Intermission
Through a nearly two-decade career, Amanda Palmer has always laid herself bare to connect deeply with her fans. For her first solo album in six years, *There Will Be No Intermission*, the former Dresden Dolls bandleader remembers her own heroes, including author Judy Blume, while mining raw and emotional subject matter. She sketches out the painful experience of a friend going through an abortion across the rippling pianos of \"Voicemail for Jill\", while she advocates strength in the face of adversity on heart-wrenching battle cry \"Bigger on the Inside\". Brimming with acerbic wit and theatrical nous, Palmer reminds us why she remains one of the most uncompromising voices in music.

Returning with her first album in six years, Amanda Palmer's There Will Be No Intermission touches upon death, grief, and the more brutal aspects of life that we ignore. This LP is far more than ‘just a ride’.
The NME review of former Dresden Dolls singer Amanda Palmer's third solo album 'There Will Be No Intermission'
Some albums articulate themselves like finely chiseled sculptures. They depict the diverse panoply of sensation through a shared sensibility that elevates the disparate snapshots into a common aesthetic approach that holds them all together.
Amanda Palmer has always demanded our attention and will go to extremes to get it.
Amanda Palmer creates some of her most ambitious music yet on 'There Will Be No Intermission' but it doesn't always match its own scope.
Released on International Women's Day, the 20 tracks include a song about abortion which was inspired by a trip to Dublin
