Negative Positive
Title: As rewarding as it is challenging...
Review: Boys For Pele is a dense, moody and often indecipherable work. Hard to listen to from start to finish without a cigarette, Pele is full of wordy psychoses, a clear inspiration for Alanis Morissette's Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie.Fortunately the clatter of Professional Widow and In The Springtime of His Voodoo (both undeniably great songs) is tempered with ballads Hey Jupiter and Putting The Damage On, and the unassuming pop of Talula and Caught A Lite Sneeze.It gets a bit heavy-handed at times but it's a rewarding work and Marianne is simply one of the most beautiful and personal songs of her career.
