EMPTY SEA

LAURA CARBONE is back with her critically acclaimed 2nd album, "Empty Sea". Following recent tours with The Jesus And Mary Chain, INVSN and The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart, on "Empty Sea" Carbone delves deeper into the intoxicating mix of dark reverb-laden pop melodies, searing rock riffs and noisy feedback chaos hinted at on her debut album, "Sirens". Think Mazzy Star, Sonic Youth and The Doors sharing an endless elevator ride from the depths of the abyss to ethereal stratospheric heights and back again.'Written partly in the gray claustrophobia of the German winter and finished in the vast golden expanse of the California desert and the gritty glare of L.A., "Empty Sea" is a bold return oozing with the confidence and swagger of a survivor. Carbone moves effortlessly here from the sexy tribal stomp of "Cellophane Skin" to the delicate beauty of the current single "Tangerine Tree", to the Brecht-ian mystique of the title track and beyond. Prepare to be charmed and disarmed, battered and bruised, only to emerge from the depths of the "Empty Sea" reaching desperately for the "REPEAT" button.'
