In 2003, primary Dirty Projector Dave Longstreth shocked and awed critics with his debut The Glad Fact, a strange, messy collection of singularly beautiful songs. In 2004, he bewildered fans and critics alike with his challenging orchestral suite Slaves’ Graves & Ballads. The new album will astonish again, as Longstreth trades his wabi-sabi for an arsenal of subwoofing sin waves, stoned rhinemaidens, clipshod beats, bone-crushing riffs played by wind orchestras, weird de-tuned guitars, and Wagnerian psychodrama. It is as subtle and flinty a piece of protest music as "A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall"— but in the end it is a love story, recorded over the course of almost two years in three different states with more than twenty-five people. "One of the most prolific and unique indie singer/songwriters of the early 2000s."
