Free Music Notes for Diabolical Streak Album
Free Music Review: Perplexingly tedious
Hit: 2 Stars
I like the sound, I like the mood, and I like the look. Jill Tracy has a nice style and the accompanying orchestra seems quite competent. Yet somehow this music, for me, is blander than silence. The lyrics, though superficially colorful, seem mostly aimless, and worse, the dynamics are utterly limp. These musicians are clearly skilled, but if they've put any passion onto this disc, then I must not know where to look for it. With one or two exceptions, every song has the same plodding tempo and modest intensity, straight through. I know these songs are about death, but that doesn't mean they have to be dreary. Case in point: the self-titled album by the Dresden Dolls, upon purchase of which Amazon prompted me to buy Diabolical Streak. That album has all the cleverness, sorrow, and life that this one lacks, and then some.
