I'll start with the bottom line: Erica "Unwoman" Mulkey's second collection of covers is terrific, and if any part of "dark pop covers performed with cello and voice" sounds appealing to you, you want this album.

Unlike the first volume in the series, every song on

Thanks!! Also thanks for making my log in to LJ for the first time in years, truly -- I've been missing the ability to post things that only friends can read.

THEIR DOG LOVES YOU

( got here from her Twitter) I loved the " Destroy Everything You Touch", almost my favorite on the album. I found Temple of Love to be repetitive though. A Forest was just too different for me to get into. I liked her version of 7NA, but every time I listen to it it just throws me out of my headspace like "why is she covering THAT?"

just my random thoughts. :-)

Hah, I nearly threw in a paragraph discussing how subjective music reviews are, particularly of covers, where everyone is bringing a whole extra boatload of associations to the song. Our responses are almost a mirror image of one another. 7NA and A Forest worked for me precisely because I needed a little shakeup in there.
