Midnight Sister - Painting the Roses - VINYL LP
About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Rock
- Description: S Midnight Sister, multi-disciplinary LA artists Juliana Giraffe and Ari Balouzian make motion pictures. Yes, sometimes with moving images - but most often only with the music they create together. Balouzian's serpentine, string compositions are movie scenes that allow Giraffe, a brilliant character actor, to cloak herself in a new roles and voices. A bit of Jon Brion's score work; some old Hollywood strings; a solid dose of glam and outsider disco from 70s independent cinema. Any perceived artifice is always matched by an indelible human fingerprint, something perfectly off. Giraffe and Balouzian's respective work in fashion, visual art, video and film scoring - along with the gang of virtuosos with which they surround themselves - all wonderfully coalesce as Midnight Sister. And if 2017's 'Saturn Over Sunset' was their collection of short films about outcast life in The San Fernando Valley, then their new album 'Paining the Roses' is the inventive, meta motion picture that cements them as auteurs. 'Painting the Roses' is in many ways a fairy tale - not so much the sweet-and-happy-ending kind as something richer, packed with imagination and rooted in the complex human messiness beneath a story's artifice. Frontwoman Giraffe describes it as Inchthis tightrope of being real yet synthetic, organic yet staged, light yet dark, logical yet irrational, beautiful yet dilapidated. Joyful nonsense.Inch Here, disguises like masks and paint are not meant to hide but to liberate, to Inchset a part of us freeInch, and Midnight Sister often embody this themselves, appearing highly stylized, curious, warm and inviting but a little askew. 'Painting the Roses' is a story told through the looking glass, one where we examine ourselves in a funhouse mirror but find clarity in it's twists. Giraffe traveled to visit family in Argentina during the making of the album and reconnected greatly

Vinyl LP pressing. 2009 , the third album from Sheffield's Arctic Monkeys. Humbug finds the band brimming with vim, vigor and new ideas. They brought in a new production accomplice, Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age), for some of the recording. He generously hosted and produced tracks with them at his Joshua Tree studio. Then they rejoined forces with James Ford (Simian Mobile Disco), producer of the previous two Arctic Monkeys and Last Shadow Puppets albums, in Brooklyn, NY to complete the tracks that became Humbug. The album is a stunning set of songs both heavier and rich than previous albums but still full of the Monkeys usual punch and vitality. Album Tracks 1. My Propeller 2. Crying Lightning 3. Dangerous Animals 4. Secret Door 5. Potion Approaching 6. Fire and the Thud 7. Cornerstone 8. Dance Little Liar 9. Pretty Visitors 10. The Jeweller's Hands
