Review

Shivaree's quaintly titled debut, I Oughtta Give You a Shot in the Head for Making Me Live in This Dump, offered a respectable run through self-deprecating Americana. But on her sophomore disc, singer-songwriter Ambrosia Parsley takes a seismic leap forward. Embracing distorted electronic breakbeats, quietly tuned gothic ornaments, and heavy-lidded torch songs, she carries out a metamorphosis similar to the one that produced Radiohead's masterpiece, OK Computer. She comes on like Billie Holiday on the rustic techno-folk of "Wagers," blooms into Joni Mitchell on the soulful "After the Prince and the Showgirl," and mixes sugary doo-wop harmonies with a grim sonic landscape on "John, 2/14." This is a weird and languidly addictive record. --Aidin VaziriEagerly anticipated followup to 1999's 'I Oughtta Give You a Shot in the Head for Making Me Live in This Dump'. A laidback mixture of lo-fi blues songs in the same vein as Tom Waits & Sparklehorse. Special guests include Blue Note legend Don Byron & Scott Minor from Sparklehorse. 2002.Second Album Still Lives Up to her Debut 'i Oughtta Give You a Shot in the Head for Making Me Live in this Dump'. A Little Less Alternative Country and More Jazzy Soul the Songs Can Go from Doo-wop to Straight Up Rock N' Roll Leaving the Listner Wanting to Hear What's Next.
