Title: A new 'Twins for a new decade
Product review: I mean the last decade, not this one, although this recording holds up surprisingly well, considering that it has been 12 years since it was released. I remember first hearing this CD coming out of the jukebox at Vezzo's in Philly, thinking "I gotta get this one." It's the perfect CD for whiling away a quiet night. Ms. Fraser's vocals are sensual and inviting, the muscianship is excellent, and the lyrics are just on this side of being understandable, if not totally coherant. The 'Twins left thier Goth constituants behind with this one, foraying ahead with a style that seemed to invoke My Bloody Valentine and Sonic Youth, while eclipsing both of them in content. While "Iceblink Luck" seems to be the breakout hit here, there are also the title track and the first track as well. An essential CD for anyone who loves all that can be music.
