Irritating could the fact have seemed that Katie Stelmanis the very beginning of her debut musical excludes as an identical twin of Karin Dreijer Andersson - good and so happy passes for successful B-side of Fever Ray: the same leaden and beguiling mood, a similarly sharp voice almost identical pitch, who should not be suspicious that? Here are Austra from all the known representatives of the so-called NuGoth those farthest venturing onto the dance floor, and thus also towards mainstream. The very titles of two and three ("Loose It" / "The Future"), the latter with truly enchanting Piano Loops, appear much livelier and rhythm-oriented than most of the material of her black sisters "- we are not yet at Robyn, but on the way then.
The decision of the complex variation of Planningtorock or herself devouring gloom of Zola Jesus preferable to pumping beats is certainly debatable, but here might not be a bad, especially since Canadians have well learned their lesson when it comes to versiertem Synthiepop with Depeche Mode and similar models , "Beat The Pulse" and "Spell Work" provide the best examples. More difficult even to keep up with this recipe, the voltage over the full length of the album - which it did not quite completely, many sounds then too smooth and similar to, but maybe you have already too many on the same terrain (see above) listened.

"The Noise" may shimmer in connection dark again before "The Beast" with heavy chords and singing barmendem decides to dance. In the play "Hate Crime" Stelmanis pleads: "Do not wanna sympathize with the darkness". but if just lends their songs a distinctive gloss, then one would like to wish her almost that you do not succeed. mapambulo: blog
