Megiddo (Lauren Hoffman album)

Megiddo is the debut album by the American singer/songwriter Lauren Hoffman, released in 1997. It was generally well received by critics, however, due to a lack of proper promotion and timing with releases by other artists, it went relatively unnoticed. This left Lauren feeling "chewed up and spit out by an industry that had (and still has) no concept of humanity", but carried on composing music. Overall, the album is known for its noticeably dark overtone, produced both by her songwriting and instrument choice, but is most prominent in the tracks "Blood", and "The Ashram Song". These qualities have since carried over to her later work.
