Review

by Jack Rabid

Boston's Mistle Thrush used to sound like a U.S. Slowdive on their Agus Amárach EP. But even then, they were still highly enjoyable, as the vocal talents of the gifted Valerie Forgione lifted them into a special category. Silt, their debut LP, finds her elegant pipes being added to a much more broad, if still entirely ethereal and celestial, palette. Imagine the Cure at their peak, circa Faith and Pornography -- in fact, "The Sky and My Hands" is vaguely like "The Hanging Garden" -- only with all the darkness and that great suffocating claustrophobia subtracted and replaced with super-pleasant, glistening textures (almost movie-soundtrack-worthy) and childlike wonder.

Many thanks to Keith R. for this!

Keith said, "Wicked Deluxe was a great compilation put out by Newbury Comics in 1996. For those of you who don't know what Newbury Comics is, it was (and still is) the only place to great great music in New England.

This comp features a bunch of bands that should have made it big (The Sterlings, The Incorruptibles) and one that almost did (Quintaine Americana)

There is one great song after another, especially The Incorruptibles "Image" which remains my favorite song of the 90's, period."
