Review by Brad Touesnard

Raw Demos 2002-2008 by Alina Simone is a collection of previously unreleased songs that showcases the artist's raw and intimate sound. The album is a testament to Simone's talent as a singer-songwriter, and her ability to convey powerful emotions through her music.

The tracks on Raw Demos 2002-2008 are stripped down and simple, with Simone's voice and guitar taking center stage. The production is minimal, which only adds to the authenticity of these recordings. Each song is a snapshot of a moment in time, capturing the artist's thoughts and feelings in a way that is both honest and relatable.

Simone's lyrics are poetic and introspective, exploring themes of love, loss, and identity. Her voice is hauntingly beautiful, with a unique timbre that draws the listener in and holds them captive. The songs on Raw Demos 2002-2008 are not flashy or over-produced, but rather they rely on the strength of Simone's songwriting and performance to make an impact.
