Lisa Germano's sixth album is an extended meditation on unhappiness as seen through the bottom of a wine glass, and as always, the devastating beauty of Germano's sparse and off-kilter piano ballads is matched only by the somber, tannic brilliance of her admittedly depressing lyrics. Though mostly a home-recorded solo effort, Germano is joined at various junctures here by Neil Finn, Johnny Marr, and former Prince sidewoman Wendy Melvoin.

Professional Reviews

Spin (p.124) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Hazy, hushed, and beautiful....A deep meditation on booze and its abuse."

Uncut (p.90) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Dreamlike missives find Germano's husky-sweet voice and keening cello set adrift amid a woozy ambience..."

Uncut (6/03, p.109) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...Spectral, frail and delicately bewildering..."

Magnet (4/03, p.89) - "...She devises ingenious ways of sending audiences gliding up or spiraling down....Germano's voice is breathy and seductive..."
