Informed by the breakup -- both professional and personal -- of Bob Wratten and Annemari Davies, the gossamer Her Handwriting is heartbreakingly delicate and forlorn; few artists bare their souls quite so beautifully as Wratten, and the 14 tracks which make up Trembling Blue Stars' debut rank among his most sublime to date, shards of melancholia made smooth with dreamy guitars and a hint of ambient atmosphere. Crafted in collaboration with ex-St. Etienne arranger Ian Catt, the album possesses a stately elegance which allows Wratten to dangle on the brink of romantic despair but never allows him or his songs to lose their dignity -- "Abba on the Jukebox" easily captures the evocative grandeur of its title, while other highlights like "For This One" shimmer with breathtaking loveliness. ~ Jason Ankeny
Recorded in 1995 & 1996.

$9.59 Swedish band the Perishers made their U.S. debut on this beautiful collection of baroque ballads and lush, piano-driven pop songs, featuring the transcendet vocals of lead singer Ola Kluft.
To most, nothing sounds more bleak than 4 hours of daylight a day during a 7 month snowcapped winter. For Sweden's, the Perishers, this is the driving force in creating stark, introspective and inspirational songs. Raised in Umea, Sweden, two of the Perishers met as children in preschool. Growing up, they realized their mutual love for music, starting a band in 1997. Their first album, From Nothing to One, was released in Scandinavia and Japan on MNW/Nons records, with great response and tour dates in Scandinavia and Japan. Their second album, Let There Be Morning, was released in their homeland in 2003 and took the public by storm, topping radio and MTV charts, also sending them on tour with Snow Patrol. Let There be Morning, their first North American release, came out April 12 and has since received rave reviews. ..a band that can walk between rock and a soft place. (Let there Be) Morning is a lovely twilight trip...

"We write songs that creep into you and stay there."The Swedish band's American debut, Let There Be Morning, is a blend of emotional wandering, poetic insight and stark, yet inspirational surroundings.
