Music

Everyone seems to either love or hate the 'electro revival,' but thetruth of the matter is that, with any genre of music, you have the goodand the bad. In this case, you have the good (Fischerspooner, Soviet,Ladytron) and then you have artists like Norway Squared.

Tarentel have always been an interesting sort. They are another in aline of bands that approaches rock music with an almost orchestraltheory, allowing their compositions to build, adding and subtractinginstruments and voices, building to dynamic crescendoes—or not.

Most fans have probably collected each one of the seasonal Solstice& Equinox singles back when they were released in 1998. Now thatthey're long out of print, a reasonably priced collection takes theirplace.
