Album Notes & Community Reviews

Italian composer Teho Teardo and Einst眉rzende Neubauten frontman Blixa Bargeld unite for an exquisite, highly theatrical chamber pop collaboration. Bargeld's poetic, multi-lingual delivery perfectly suits the dramatic string arrangements and modern classical, electroacoustic foundations.
