La Mia Vita Violenta

On their sophomore album, Blonde Redhead streamline the beautiful ballast of their debut into a feral flow as focused as it is furious. An upgrade in production values this time around doesn't stifle the energy, and greatly enhances the increasingly sophisticated interplay between intstruments and voices. If the debut announced their arrival, La Mia Vita Violenta cemented their (rightful) place at the table.
