专辑简介
"Violinist Petra Haden and accordionist Miss Murgatroid (née Alicia Rose) make a startling duo. Rose's accordion sounds church-organ, big in some parts and then like the fiercest '60s-era electric keyboard in others, while Haden, formerly of That Dog (and the daughter of jazz bass virtuoso Charlie), wields a beautiful tone, terse but rich ... a wonderful recording." -- Andrew Bartlett, Amazon.com Reuniting after more than a four-year hiatus, Miss Murgatroid and Petra Haden convene anew for another bout of ebullient sonic symbiosis. Their simple but unique combination of accordion, violin, and voice delves into waters deep and strange, with a mix of vocals and instrumentals that transport the listener to eerie dark alleys, lush Italian seasides, and the false bottoms of haunted toychests. Their last effort, Bella Neurox, met with critical acclaim and delighted fan frenzy.
The girls agreed, and their newest effort offers nine new tracks of absolute symphonic loveliness. Fueled by mutual heartache, spectral visions, grandiose baroque fantasies, and their undying fondness for one another's brains, Miss M and Petra Haden have truly outdone themselves. Layering vocals, violin, viola, and accordion in ways that will utterly enchant and intrigue the listener, this is a true labor of love that defies as many genres as it is influenced by.
