CocoRosie - Tales of a Grasswidow - VINYL LP

Their third represents another stride onward from previous works, where the girls continue to experiment with their disparate voices and clashing personalities, juxtaposing devastating ballads like InchWerewolfInch with exhilerating tracks like InchJapanInch and the jaunty single InchRainbowarriorsInch. It's a rich, orchestral array of sounds and beauty; a vaudevillian opera, if you will. Album Tracks 1. Rainbowarriors 2. Promise 3. Bloody Twins 4. Japan 5. Sunshine 6. Black Poppies 7. Werewolf 8. Animals 9. Houses 10. Raphael 11. Girl and the Geese 12. Miracle

For just over twenty years, Bianca and Sierra Casady have transmuted the love, hardship, and ecstasy of sisterhood into some of the most daring, dangerous, and wildly original music our increasingly sanitized culture has known. CocoRosie has been a project consistently at the musical vanguard, influencing countless musicians while inspiring and creating refuge for the Inchcriminal queersInch of the world. Above all, CocoRosie has been a conduit for irrepressible artistic self realization. 'Little Death Wishes' is as open and tenderhearted as anything they've ever created. The songs tell a kaleidoscopic story of the generational hardship of women and the shattered realities of their lives, the precarious and precious nature of being human, of being done wrong by love, and a final wish to be unbroken. It boils everything CocoRosie down to it's most brutal essence turning pain into knowledge, sisterhood into polemic, trash into treasure, and recalcifying kitsch and cliché into fresh truths. The duo's 8th long player exists in it's own musical lexicon. It is both primordial and tawdry, a rich bricolage of dusted-over pop culture signifiers that the sisters contort into their own sense of temporality. Contributing to the avant garde, yet unbeholden to contemporary trends, CocoRosie collects musical detritus from other times, which they fashion into their own baroque, theatricalized creations. With the sisters' hands deep in every layer of their music, each song on 'Little Death Wishes' feels transportative and transformative. InchCocoRosie has been the center of our lives for such a long time now,Inch says Bianca. In those years, the sisters have been infantilized and revered, fetishized and mirrored, misogynized and adored; at times willfully misunderstood by the press-which has failed to reduce the group into mere perverse whimsy. Despite it all, CocoRosie has continuou

CocoRosie is Bianca and Sierra Casady. Sierra sings and plays guitar and flute. Bianca sings and does percussion (rattles things, makes things squeak, shakes a gold chain belt). They write all the music together. La Maison de Mon Réve was written and recorded in a tiny apartment in the 18th district of Paris during the spring of 2003. La Maison de Mon Réve was released by Touch and Go Records in March 2004. La Maison de Mon Réve is deceptively innocent; enchanting and sweet yet eerie and twisted. An acoustic guitar paints melody through a haze of cryptic sounds and perversely angelic voices. A broken radio transmits a music box orchestra. Tiny field mice sing opera. This 20th anniversary edition of CocoRosie's debut album La Maison de Mon Réve is pressed on transparent algae sea vinyl and limited to 1500 copies worldwide. Packaged in a gatefold jacket with never-before-seen photos, the vinyl includes the full album along with a previously unreleased bonus track, InchHairnet Paradise.Inch Album Tracks 1.
