Abstract Confessions CD (2001)
 $11.15
If this is true, then dreams, the relentless cinemascopes of the night which everyone attends alone, are the genesis, or at least the cradle, of our more visible selves. Barbara Mitchell - The Stranger, SeattleFrom the Bible to Freud to Jung, we've been told that dreams are prophetic, self-revelatory and important. In song, Zera Marvel, Tagging Satellites' singer, songwriter, lyricist, guitarist, and bassist, describes the work as "abrupt accidental insanity formed from Northwest energy," and in conversation she describes it as "couples therapy through music," referring to the fact that the other half of Tagging Satellites is her "better half" and boyfriend Graig Markel. Voices push forward, punctuate a scene or an image with an intriguing non sequitur such as "eerie fog in my eyes; I hear you, I hear you," from "Five Star Memory," and then scatter in the onrush of the tune's next sonic and verbal adventure, leaving the listener grasping at the bygone lyrical snippet and pondering its importance. They seem to hint that "we", the universal "we", are built from the same stuff as our dreams. Like that dark-haired poet you had a crush on in high school, there's something mysterious and slightly dangerous about Tagging Satellites. Shakespeare's Prospero sought to define art when he declared, "we are such stuff as dreams are made on," and he certainly did so, but those nine simple words seem to suggest more, a very modern more. The ten songs on "Abstract Confessions" move with the fluidity and freedom of flying dreams. When vocalist Zera Marvel (who turns out not to be dark-haired at all) intones, "I don't know/what it means/to have things/go my way," you'll remember that there was a time when pain was art, not commerce. The band's second album, "Abstract Confessions", is almost a flashback to the moody, art school-influenced underground of pre-break-through Jane's Addiction LA - wonderfully detached, on-the-verge-of-a-breakdown female vocals paired with music that finds the middle ground between the ethereal and the razor's edge. Working together in their basement studio the two of them have crafted this record out of the stuff of their lives together.

Risk Of Flight EP CD (2001)
$7.99
"Seattle's Tagging Satellites favor the subtle over the obvious, the discreet over the bombastic. The result is a grounded record- one content to win you over with tenderness rather than aggression.
