"12 rounds "my big hero



My big hero by 12 rounds is both beautiful and evil. lovely and creepy. The stunning Ms. Sarnes voice is awkwardly gorgeous and haunting. There was a time that 3 people thought I was driving them into the night to kill them because I was listening to this recording. Rumors has it that album #3 has been shelved by Nothing. Which is a pity because I've been waiting years for another release. I guess I would have to classify this somewhere between trip hop and vampire pop. Like love songs for halloween. Makes me want to brew up a pot of tea with kava and sit lightly drugged in the dark while the light cuts slices through the drawn shutters illuminating motes of dust. This is a beautiful and noisy recording. I think it is sad that they never made much of a splash. Beauty and bliss in a grissly murder kind of haunted way. Find it. Love it.

"Find it", he says blithely. I've been looking for this high and low—and it's nowhere to be found, just like "Inclement Weather" by Eighty Mile Beach (which is a different thing, but equally absent from the web). No chance of you upping it, is there? :-D

In my defense, I just found 42 different copies in about 2 minutes... as well as 32 copies of Eighty Mile Beach. They range in price from a penny to about $25. I wonder where your looking. Upping it is really not my thing. Storage space and all. sorry. Good luck tho'.
