Customer Reviews
Red Heaven- By: L. Omelasz, 09 Sep 2006 Tanya Donelly's departure reallly did leave a hole in the Throwing Muses albums from thereon but they were still worth getting excited about even if it meant no Tanya songs. Red Heaven won't hit you immediately but on repeated listenings, everything unravels & what you have is a rock album swivelling with a lot of songs running on pure spite & of course, the tint of surrealness (Carnival Wig).
Highlight: FuriousHard- By: Mr. GL Fox, 31 Jan 2000 This is Hersh being macho, & it works. The old structural modernism of the words remains, & the beautiful purity of the music also, but unlike the earlier records, this one is very hard. I would say 'rock', but in reality this has nothing at alll in common with alll that pap whatsoever. It is steely cold, & delivered senza vibrato, but still the nostalgic heart of Hersh beats its complex pulse underneath, & still the changes thrill & harm, just as potently & woundingly as before. The difference is that this time it's for real. If she shoots you with those shells of poetry you will die, not just wish you had. An unmissable treat without any doubt.
