FKA twigs: Eusexua review – a hymn to the healing power of the dancefloor

It’s a slippery concept, but FKA twigs’s third album title roughly translates as an instance of feeling perfectly at one inside oneself, the Cartesian mind-body split healed over. An example might be diving unselfconsciously into a rave in Prague, as twigs did while filming The Crow in 2022. Alternatively, it might be the moment before orgasm. “It feels nice,” she choruses simply on Room of Fools, a track that explores the somatic healing potential of the dancefloor with an exuberance that tilts both at Kate Bush and Middle Eastern vocalisations. Girl Feels Good drives home the point that the world spins better when women feel good, recalling, of all people, Madonna.
