    Bouzilich however, does have some good ideas and there are some very good moments to be found on Hello, Voyager, it's just the convoluted mess of ideas that is the rest of the album overwhelms its strongest points.

    These impressionistic songs shudder to life under the weight of passive-agressive feedback, anchored by Bouzulich's melodramatic howl and Tara Barnes' menancing bass. [Apr 2008, p.96]

    The album includes one unreasonably lovely song, 'The Blue Room,' along with two instrumental tracks and several concussive punk-rock tunes.

    Meh. Patti Smith does it better.

You will find a peerless voice and musicians who blow the roof off anything else goin' on right now. Good luck wading past the bullshit being spun by people afraid their family jewels will get sucked up inside of them if they admit that powerhouses like Nick Cave and Diamanda Galas have met their match. in fact, add a little Arcade Fire and Animal Collective in there and maybe some Wolf Eyes or something and you pretty much got it.… Full Review »
