My first outing with Shivaree came several years ago when I heard the album Who's Got Trouble? in a favorite Austin music emporium. I got back into that recently and realized that I liked it so much I had to hear more. So I went into the band's back catalog and ordered a few more CDs, Rough Dreams among them. There is no denying that lead singer Ambrosia Parsley has one of the sexiest voices in modern music. Though many may be unfamiliar with the comparison, I put her voice in the same league with that of Paatos' Petronella Nettermalm. It just drips with a rare combination of sexy and innocent that should drive the discerning listener wild. While I don't think Rough Dreams is up to what Shivaree achieves with Who's Got Trouble?, there is still a lot to like. Songs I find particularly compelling are Wagers, Gone Too Far, Thundercats, John 2/14, and Flycatcher. On the downside, there are a couple of commercial-sounding tunes like After The Prince And The Showgirl and Reseda Casino that just don't pass muster with me. Overall, Rough Dreams is a strange brew of an album that calls you back again and again. The CD comes with a useful booklet featuring lyrics and all pertinent album info. If you are tired of the fecal matter that passes for music on commercial radio and yearn to hear something with a little bite, maybe its time to check out Shivaree.
This band is very popular in Europe (especially France) and somewhat popular in South America but not in USA. Ironically this is an American band. Because this band is not you're typical radio music it has had the success it really deserves. For mainstream pop listeners this can be discribed as "No boubt" perhaps Johnny Cash put together. Abrosia's voice sounds similar to Gwen stefani's but with more charm and sensitivity. If you like No Doubt's "Don't speak" or "running" then you'll love Shivaree becuase all of their songs are that good. As for this Album in particular.... It its full of wonder. It's magical and unusual yet pleasing to the ear. A must have.
This is an intriguing band. "Rough dreams" sounds more polished than their first album on the production side, but remains imaginative. Ambrosia's voice is one of a kind and can be mesmerizing. Listen to the difference between the short opener "Wagers" where she sounds like a more than girly Gwen Stefani and "After the Prince and the Showgirl" where she turns into a Soul diva... You feel the girl's character and personality in her voice. "Gone Too Far" is a little jewel of electro jazz with a touch of pop. "Thundercats" is a great rock track with electric guitars and recitative vocals. "Stealing Home" sounds a little bit country. "John, 2/4" and its tango rhythm makes me think about some Hooverphonic songs. With "Reseda Casino" (which reminds me of Garbage), it is one of the most radio friendly songs on the album. "Ten Minutes" and its urban feel is also a potential single. "Queen-sized Tomb" is a rock ballad with fragile and passionate vocals flying above the electric guitars. I wonder about some strange and cryptic lyrics though (murder, mental disorder?). Maybe they are connected to the album title? Varied, changing, surprising, it is rare to find a band who dares to leave the beaten paths... If they keep on that way they might turn into a great original alternative band.
I first found Shivaree by accident when they were playing at student unions in London, and I have yet to find anyone in the US familiar with the band. It's a pity. Ambrosia's voice captures the eerie nostalgia of twentieth-century middle america perfectly. In fact, when I was writing my senior thesis on mid-twentieth century Appalachian poetry, I put their first cd on repeat and I credit Ambrosia with giving me the inspiration to finish my work. ROUGH DREAMS continues the nostalgic exploration of Appalachia, Southern California and all the campy, beautiful products of life in between. A constant sense of urgency and danger pervades the cd, and I'm pretty sure the strongest track, After the Princess and the Showgirl, is about seducing an underage girl. I hope this band, already seductively if tragically marginalized, will continue their work.
This is an amazing and, apparently, under appreciated album. If Capital would make any effort to sell this band in the US, everyone would be listening. Ambrosia has a voice like a goddess: it is all music and soul. The band explores music in a way that incorporates an array of different styles. For example, "All Because You Told Me So" sounds like a 1930's torch ballad, while "Reseda Casino" is as catchy as anything by the big names in pop - it just happens to be very well written and musically interesting. This album is truly like nothing else I have ever heard before - beautiful, melodic, exciting, and so diversified while still maintaining the total integrity of the band's sound. I can't recommend it highly enough.
Shivaree was Darling Of The Month with her second record ROUGH DREAMS at Germany's issue of the Rolling Stone, Aug 02. Absolutely right! ROUGH DREAMS is exactly what it calls: ROUGH - but in the sense of disordered, and DREAMS - in the sense of fantastic. ROUGH DREAMS is more rhythmic, and more pop in contrast to Shivaree's first record I OUGHTTA GIVE YOU A SHOT IN THE HEAD FOR MAKING ME LIVE IN THIS DUMP - are there awards for record titles? Maybe a little pity because the record has lost the typical Shivaree-Patchwork-Music-Style, the band's trade-mark. However, ROUGH DREAMS is an unusual record. Very varied, intelligent, very good arrangements, very good lyrics.... all made by very creative and competent musicians. If you shouldn't hear that at once use the CD player's replay button and you'll love the record, Shivaree's music more and more. ...

Aussergewöhnlich
Bei dem vorigen Album dieser Band, auf die ich in einer amerik. TV-Show aufmerksam geworden bin, hat man teilw. die Melodie und die von anderen Musikern gewohnten Klänge etwas stark vermisst. Hier ist das nun zum Glück etwas anders. Ich hab überlegt, dieses Album mir erst gar nicht zu kaufen aus Angst, es könne ganauso sein, aber gut dass ichs doch getan hab. Die Musik ist auch diesmal wieder sehr außerordentlich und etwas eigenwillig, da oft mit vielen Effekten oder schrägen Sounds experimentiert wird. Aber meistens hört man hier von Streichern wunderbar untermalte, extrem gut gesungene Musik, der es an Atmosphäre ebensowenig fehlt, wie an Qualität und Faszination. Sogar beim ersten Mal wo ich sie gehört hab, hatte ich eher sehr gewöhnungsbedürftige Musik erwartet, aber nein .. sofort beim 2. Track merkt man, das hier mehr Melodie und Musik zu erwarten ist. Während der Vorgänger sehr spärlich instrumentiert war, ist hier alles drin was das Herz begehrt. Ausserdem kommt noch hinzu, dass viele Musikrichtungen vertreten sind und alle in einer, wie ich finde, einwandfreien Art u. Weise dargeboten werden. Das Herausragendste ist allerdings, wie schon beim Album davor, die schon nicht mehr zu beschreibende Stimme der Ambrosia Parsley. Meine Musiktips sind : "After The Prince And The Showgirl", "John, 2/14" und "Gone Too Far".
日本語になおすと、このアルバムのタイトルは「荒っぽい夢」とでもなるでしょうか？ Shivareeはアメリカのバンドなのに、このアルバムはなぜかヨーロッパ圏のみで発売されたようです。 本国アメリカよりヨーロッパでの評価が格段に高いのが、Shivareeの不思議な特徴といえるかもしれません。 彼らが表現しようとするダークで耽美的な世界観が、アメリカ以上にヨーロッパで評価されていることは、ある意味納得できる所でもあります。 一般的な大方のアメリカ人は、やはり明朗快活な表現を好むようですが、アメリカの源流であるヨーロッパの人達は、自分達が明朗には表現し得ないダークサイドを抱えていることを、恐らく本能的に知っています。ヨーロッパの血塗られた歴史が、彼らにそのような意識下の認識をもたらしているのでしょう。 Shivareeの音楽性は、アメリカの音楽に根ざしていながら、どこかにヨーロッパ的な深みや暗さを内包しています。それが彼らの音楽の最大の魅力となっているように思います。 この２ndアルバムは、前作以上に音楽的に多様化しています、というよりは、多様化しているように見せながら、さらにそのオリジナリティーを深めているように思えます。 このアルバムからは、タンゴ調の「John,2/14」がシングルカットされヴィデオクリップもありますが、これはぜひ見てみてください。ヴィクトリアンな倒錯に満ちた作品になっています。 前作以上に魅惑的なアルバムに仕上がっています。このアルバム1枚で、1920年代から現代までのアメリカ音楽のさまざまな断片を新しい切り口で垣間見ることができます。 デカダンな少々荒っぽい夢に浸りたい方にお勧めのアルバムです。

Second Album Still Lives Up to her Debut 'i Oughtta Give You a Shot in the Head for Making Me Live in this Dump'. A Little Less Alternative Country and More Jazzy Soul the Songs Can Go from Doo-wop to Straight Up Rock N' Roll Leaving the Listner Wanting to Hear What's Next.
Shivaree's quaintly titled debut, I Oughtta Give You a Shot in the Head for Making Me Live in This Dump , offered a respectable run through self-deprecating Americana. But on her sophomore disc, singer-songwriter Ambrosia Parsley takes a seismic leap forward. Embracing distorted electronic breakbeats, quietly tuned gothic ornaments, and heavy-lidded torch songs, she carries out a metamorphosis similar to the one that produced Radiohead's masterpiece, OK Computer . She comes on like Billie Holiday on the rustic techno-folk of "Wagers," blooms into Joni Mitchell on the soulful "After the Prince and the Showgirl," and mixes sugary doo-wop harmonies with a grim sonic landscape on "John, 2/14." This is a weird and languidly addictive record. --Aidin Vaziri
