Details: They've walked the periphery of America's indie-rock underground for over a decade now, but it's only with Misery Is a Butterfly that the New York City-based band of artist-refugees that call themselves Blonde Redhead have flashed more than a fleeting glimpse of all their startling potential. 2000's elegantly angular Melody of Certain Damaged Lemons demonstrated a band reaching out for something beyond generic punk rock, but here, the band have clearly finally found their sound. The sumptuous production courtesy, somewhat surprisingly, of Fugazi's Guy Picciotto sets the angelic duelling voices of Japanese songstress Kazu Makino and the Milan-born Amedo Pace in the midst of a mini-orchestra of violins and cello, maudlin descending basslines and furtively strummed guitars. Makino specialises in pale torch-songs that conceal their emotions in deep shadow; her partner pens the more robust tunes, such as the shrill "Falling Man", all dancing piano and baroque prog-tempos. But it's all held together by drummer Simone Pace's inventive, yet machine-precise percussion tracks--neat rhythmic packages for truly delicate musical experiments. It may not be quite immediate enough for some rock fans, but fans of Galaxie 500, Sonic Youth or Fugazi's The Argument should adore it. --Louis Pattison
