"This album's title, Frames of Teknicolor, refers to a line in the opening track, '1939', where the narrator of the piece compares her life to the golden age of cinema. The title also refers to the album as a whole, each track being a dark, poetic tale, a separate frame in the overall film. The songs weave their tales over ethereal yet hauntingly minimal atmospherics. Violins pluck at the heartstrings in '1939', bitter isolation invades your dreams in 'Confined', the gods call down the fury of the storms in the fairy tale 'The Undying Man'. Each shimmering melody invokes an emotion through a sultry voice that brings the poetic lyrics to life. The epilogue is the beautiful, 'Frozen In Time', a haunting ballad that explores the phrase what might have been through piano, guitar, and enchanting female vocals." Last copies, reduced price.
