Album Notes
An integral member of the "freak folk" scene that includes Devendra Banhart and Joanna Newsom, Josephine Foster is arguably the most technically gifted of the lot. This ambitious album finds Foster singing Schubert, Brahms, and other 19th-century German lieder, in a gorgeous, controlled voice over ethereal but unobtrusive electric guitar. It is quite an achievement, and leaves fans wondering what obscure musical form she will master next.

Editorial Reviews
4 stars out of 5 -- Imagine, if you will, Schubert's Winterreise hijacked by Thomas Ligotti and Jan Svankmajer and you won't even be close to fathoming the unearthly beauty of this recording.The Wire (p.55) - It all works, and gloriously so. These are beautiful songs, sung beautifully, with beautiful accompaniment. Foster's famously wayward, reverb-soaked vocal intensity draws us deeper into her own particular kind of darkness.
