DeVotchKa first came to my attention with a recommendation from a trusted fellow blogger. Admittedly, I was more curious about their cover of Siouxsie & The Banshees' "The Last Beat of My Heart" than about anything else on their Curse Your Little Heart EP. Other than the aforementioned cover, I have to admit that I found little that impressed me at the time. I felt that the Balkan-rock fusion sound was being done better by contemporaries like Gogol Bordello and A Hawk and a Hacksaw. However, A Mad & Faithful Telling has handily won me over. The new album shows a great deal more dimension than the EP did. In particular, "The Clockwise Witness" and "Transliterator" are impressive examples of more evolved and nuanced sound. A Mad & Faithful Telling could be a critical and commercial breakthrough for this woefully underrated band.
