Free Music Notes for How It Ends

Free Music Review: such a lovely thing!
Hit: 5 Stars

I saw DeVotchKa open for the Dresden Dolls, having absolutely no idea what they were like, except for the hearing the word "Ukranian" associated with them. When I saw the band's set-up -- a guy playing both accordion and violin (not at the same time...), a woman playing bass and a giant tuba lit up with Christmas lights, a percussionist with a trumpet, and a frontman who looked like the spawn of Morrissey -- well, yes, that got my attention. And when they started to play...I was thoroughly Impressed. With a capital "I". Nick Urata, the vocalist -- his voice gave me chills, his alternately plaintive and powerful falsetto nearly brought tears to my eyes. In addition to electric guitar and bouzouki, he also played a theremin. (A THEREMIN. Anybody who knows me knows that the way to my heart is via the ability to play a theremin. But I digress.) The energy of the performance was contagious and I felt myself getting swept up in the music that was at once foreign and familiar to my ears. I don't usually seek out this type of music, it was simply thrust upon me, and I liked it a lot.

So I needed to get their CD, ANY one of them, and fast. "How It Ends" was my choice, and it lived up to their live show. With artists I'm not familiar with, I usually fear that their recorded material is weaker than actually seeing a performance. I wasn't let down at all. In fact, the songs on this album have even *more* resonance, and are infused with so much heart and soul and passion and beauty that I still get goosebumps and tears in my eyes. My personal favorites include "You Love Me," "The Enemy Guns" (there's nothing remotely Ukranian about this one, it's actually a Mexican-type norteno), "Dearly Departed" (makes me bawl every time), and "Such a Lovely Thing." But all of the tracks are amazing in their own right.
