Rachel's Selenography

3 stars (out of 5) - "...sees the extended 11-piece tackling an increased range of material encompassing the odd electronic essay and drum-and-guitar-laced chamber pop as well as their piano and string based pieces....Quite lovely..."
"...[They] continue to create music that defies catagorization....establishes its sense of time and place through the use of varying instrumental textures...with a cinematic quality that's as reminiscent of soundtrack music as anything else..."
"...Rachel's charm offensive elicited rhapsodic responses from some of the most doggedly monosyllabic bastions of rock journalism....a substantial musicality underpins its tranquil surface."
"...transcends chamber pop frippery to engage in beautiful studies of harmony and rhythmic tension..."
New Music Monthly (7/99, p.54) - "...Mating the can-do spirit of indie rock with the measured perfection of classical music...slow, graceful pirouettes anchored by piano, guitar and viola....these 12 compositions unfold with a deliberate relish, never racing impatiently towards the final cadence."
