Sole known release What You Want (c. 2000) See also:A brief profile of Sacred Raisin Cakes in The Phoenix's band guide Comparisons:There were a lot of similar bands around this time Covers/own material:Own General comments:A mix of folkie-sounding electronic stuff with more electronic pop. The vocalist has a nice touch and makes the songs come alive. (Neile) Recommended first album:What You Want is the only one weknow about Recordings:What You Want (c. 2000) What You WantRelease info:c. 2000—mp3.com Availability:No longer available Ecto priority:Recommended/ Group members:Aimee Bernard—vocals Comments:"Neurotica" is the first track of theirs that made me really stand up and pay attention to them in the midst of a bunch of mp3 downloads, but all of the songs have hooks and great moments. This is another time when the only music available from a band is a burned CD from mp3. This are 8 strong tracks, though "Cold Comfort" may tend a little more towards plain folk than I usually like, on repeated listens I got quite fond of it. And after many, many listens I still love "Neurotica." (Neile) |
