Miranda Sex Garden - Fairytales of Slavery

I thought for sure I had uploaded this before...


Miranda Sex Garden - Fairytales of Slavery

But apparently I didn't... Anyway this is Miranda Sex Garden, an old gothic rock band to put things simply. This is the only album I have by them but it is quite good. Interestingly enough apparently their 1st album was entirely a cappella also. Needles to say, this is a drastic change from a cappella.

So ultimately what we have here is a gothic rock albun, but there is some really interesting parts to this bands sound. First, is the perfect combination of an intense, and aggressive atmosphere, with the tribalesque drum beats, combined with the extremely ethereal feel of the vocals, the almost shoegazy guitar and the accompanying strings. Course at the same time, no song really sounds the same, and indeed one track is in fact a cappella. Nonethless...

If you liked Cranes, and you better have, you should love this.


God I love that song.
