If everything moves ...

... And a voice whispers, shouts, sings, jubilant or falls into a sort of sing-song voice that you do not get out of your head ... when a piano of the opera raises seemingly every musical variations in a pot until the rock song, good by mix and at the end something comes out that as tempting as strange sounds ... then ... then ... there is probably an Spektor album in the player and there turns his rounds. Nothing moves in the Liedermacher- and indie scene at the time, can be compared with Spektor albums. At the New Yorker with Russian roots every trend seems mercilessly bounce. Why you should also be based on any trends, if you prescribe the direction itself? This may Regina Spektor as good as any other artist worldwide.

-Soviet Kitsch is one of those brilliant albums. You may find not equal access, but once you are in it, will not get you out again. When a little girl voice "Regina ... Regina ... when is that song gonna start?" whispers, with Regina Spektor begrudge a small Flüsterplausch and then breaks out the music, as if the instruments would explode, then we are in the thick of it Spektor music universe of -Soviet Kitsch.

-Ode To divorce- is an opener that almost reminiscent classical music. -Poor Little boy- Rich is Regina's voice, a piano and a baton plus class text. -Carbon Monoxide- is a typical Spektor-piece. Musically highly creative grasp as each other gears, which would be composed as no other musician. Powered by a grand piano stomps the song ahead like a steam hammer. -Whisper And Your honor- are a duo like black and white. Silent whispers, lots of breaks, and then a punk anthem that knocks down a. -Somedays- Is a ballad at its best. Music that deeply tackles a. Who then is not yet convinced, I recommend, in listening in -us-. As Regina as the piano and an armada of strings makes music that you never forget that is indescribably good.

Okay, okay ... I have to let me go again a bit. But believe me ... when Regina Spektor happens to me almost always. I love music that fits into no preconceived scheme. The only itself and seeks and finds: The moves! Regina Spektor makes exactly this kind of music and the album is one of their most convincing -Soviet Kitsch representatives. Try it out! Should they, however, already chewing nails waiting every week on the charts ... they prefer to let it alone!
