成軍於多倫多的Picastro,明顯就是一隊以豐富多變的樂器層次和編曲,悉心製作slow-core曲式的樂隊。Picastro並沒有如早期Low的音樂般,minimal得叫人毛骨悚然的intense感覺,但儼如恐佈片配樂的歌曲也有不少。此外,在某些歌曲裡小提琴特意的走音拉奏,加上連小結他Ukelele、電子音效也一併搬弄,令這張樂隊的第三張專輯,瀰漫濃厚的實驗味道。

A mysterious and enigmatic figure -- supposedly raised in a deaf family, being genetically deaf herself, and having learned to sign as her first language -- Picastro front-woman Liz Hysen quickly gained notoriety for her soulfully emotive vocals and her band's lushly atmospheric mediations. First taking their native Toronto by storm and giving the city some needed indie rock credibility in the process, their unique pairing of electric guitars, cellos, and haunting vocals soon were winning fans over outside of Canada, as the quartet was soon snatched up by Los Angeles' leading experimental rock label, Pehr. Their debut, 2001's Red Your Blues, drew comparisons to everyone from Godspeed You Black Emperor! to Cat Power, earned favorable reviews, and ultimately had songs turning up on network television programs. By the end of that year, Hysen was said to be recording an album of gypsy songs with avant-garde rockers Cerberus Shoal.
