Ms Carafice was incarcerated in a mental hospital for a time, which explains songs like <em>Asylum Escape Song<\/em>\u00a0and <em>Lorazopam<\/em>\u00a0[sic]. They sound a bit more upbeat than you might think &#8212; all acoustic guitars, piano and drums and a few other things. Even <em>Song For A Cruel German Psychiatrist Woman<\/em>\u00a0(&#8220;Where is the God in you, Hitler woman?&#8221;) has a rollicking folky feel to it.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Carafice is an expat Kiwi, living in the USA. I saw an interview on TV with her a few months ago, which revealed that she has a nice mid-Pacific accent &#8212; but her singing voice gives a dark quality to even upbeat songs like the excellent <em>Bodhisattva<\/em>. The same interview revealed that her name is pronounced &#8220;Karafeechay&#8221;, so you can go to your local CD shop and ask for her CD with confidence. Of course you could buy it online, but where&#8217;s the fun in that?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This wonderfully-titled album is full of dark-tinged folk pop; the music is interesting and acoustic, while the voice and lyrics lend a definite edge.
