As striking as an impromptu encounter between the soaring sensuality of Fiona Apple and the melancholy world of Beirut, the music of Dark Dark Dark represents a kind of orchestrated pop with an array of delicate touches: string arrangements, a double bass, a smidgen of accordion, and gentle songs delivered in a subdued whisper by the velvety voice of Nona Marie Invie.

Who Needs Who pop (Melodic/Konkurrent)
The US group’s singer caresses the contemplative notes of her piano as she creates a fragile sound with elements of jazz, folk, and klezmer. The new album is a passionate account of break-up, with delicate, sincere compositions that go straight to the listener’s heart. The five-strong Minneapolis combo also does a fine job with some sentimental ballads (“Tell Me”, “Without You”, “Last Time I Saw Joe”). Truly, a fine, fine, fine piece of work from Dark Dark Dark.
