    Develops and expands on themes from their first album, with more mature songwriting. Zeffira's orchestrations are truly wonderful and she is establishing a reputation as one of the best female composers around. Her solo album, "The Deserters" is well worth a listen, as is the Cat's Eyes score for Peter Strickland's "The Duke of Burgundy". The classical influence she brings can be heard throughout.

    On Treasure House, Cat's Eyes continue to forge a unique path, as Badwan and Zeffira blend the old with the new, pop with classical and melancholy with drive.

    While Cat's Eyes still borrow from a wide range of influences, they do it so well, and with such a sense of wonder, that Treasure House is their most distinctive album yet.

    On Treasure House they find an impressive balance: classical, symphonic music melds with garage and post-punk, giving credence to the cliché that opposites attract, outstanding in its complex sounds and arrangements.
