Free Music Notes for Rough Dreams
Free Music Review: I can't get enough Ambrosia....
Hit: 4 Stars
....Parsley, that is, not that 70's "How Much I Feel" group. This CD is not for the unimaginative, so if you like being told what music to like, skip this..go listen to Brittany and Lindsey and whoever radio is force feeding you nowadays. If, however, you don't musically scare esaily, like a bit of quirkiness in the songs, and have a thing for a singer who can look through you while all the time laughing, then pick up this CD, or any CD that Shivaree has out. The songs here are not commercial enough to have earned a US release (and that may actually be a good thing in the long run), but you also get the first version of "Gone 2 Far" (the song is also recorded in a different form on the 'Who's Got Trouble' CD) as well as a few other memorable taunts, my favorites being Thundercats, John 2/14, After the Prince and the Showgirl, and my favorite track on this CD, "All Because You Told Me So." I must admit I like "...Shot in the Head....." and "Who's Got Trouble" a touch more, but this is a must for any Shivaree fan...and I might have like it more if I didn't hear Trouble first. Anyhow, it is a listen worth remembering and repeating.
Rough Dreams Poster
Eagerly anticipated followup to 1999's 'I Oughtta Give You a Shot in the Head for Making Me Live in This Dump'. A laidback mixture of lo-fi blues songs in the same vein as Tom Waits & Sparklehorse. Special guests include Blue Note legend Don Byron & Scott Minor from Sparklehorse. 2002.Shivaree's quaintly titled debut, I Oughtta Give You a Shot in the Head for Making Me Live in This Dump, offered a respectable run through self-deprecating Americana. But on her sophomore disc, singer-songwriter Ambrosia Parsley takes a seismic leap forward. Embracing distorted electronic breakbeats, quietly tuned gothic ornaments, and heavy-lidded torch songs, she carries out a metamorphosis similar to the one that produced Radiohead's masterpiece, OK Computer. She comes on like Billie Holiday on the rustic techno-folk of "Wagers," blooms into Joni Mitchell on the soulful "After the Prince and the Showgirl," and mixes sugary doo-wop harmonies with a grim sonic landscape on "John, 2/14." This is a weird and languidly addictive record. --Aidin Vaziri
