专辑介绍

by Heather Phares

Throwing Muses' self-titled 1986 debut is still a startling collision of punk energy, folky melodicism, and Kristin Hersh's mercurial voice and lyrics. The violent, vibrant mood swings on songs like &Call Me& are a testament not only to Hersh's unique talent, but the elasticity of Tanya Donelly, David Narcizo, and Leslie Langston's playing. Even if the volatile moods on songs like &Hate My Way& aren't easily understood, they're easily felt; the twists and turns &Vicky's Box& and &Rabbits Dying& take are guided purely by the intense emotions they carry. Throwing Muses is almost as varied musically as it is emotionally, ranging from the scary punkabilly of &America (She Can't Say No)& to &Stand Up&'s angular, acoustic post-punk to the cathartic thrill of &Delicate Cutters&'s unsettling folk. Donelly contributes the surreal, ethereal love song &Green&; even at this early point in the Muses' career, it's clear that she is a more accessible, straightforward songwriter, despite the care taken to make the song sound more like the rest of the album. A powerful debut, Throwing Muses puts the work of most self-consciously &tortured& artists to shame; its fluid, effortless emotional shifts may not make for the most accessible music, but they're unquestionably genuine.
