Takes a few tracks to get going, I think, but from "Deadly Valentine" onwards this is quality.

This put a big grin on my face when I first heard the song this morning: the piano in "Dead Valentine" from 0:45 to 0:50 is almost a direct quote from one of Serge's songs I think? Not sure which one though, "L'Homme á tête de chou", maybe?

Has anyone seen her live on the current tour? How is she in concert?

She's not coming here, but the reviews I read were mixed. Some claimed she was a non-presence and others liked it a lot. Would love to see her tho

niels, Sunday, 26 August 2018 13:24 (five years ago) link

That's a tune. Not as good as the Soulwax remix of Deadly Valentine, but still a damn fine track

I never heard about the cat. Finally ended up listening to this album after “Deadly Valentine” showed up in a playlist. Something I read said the reason she lives in NYC is she came here after the death her half-sister Kate Barry who at least one of the songs in obviously about.

Also just recently saw her play a small but important role in The Play Blue Eye.
