Product Description "Marilyn Carino sings about troubled longings and bleak surreal visions, while Ben Rubin surrounds her melancholy voice with brooding, minor-key tracks that start with electric piano and venture into smoky, ominous lounge territory, somewhere between Fiona Apple and Morcheeba." -Jon Pareles, New York Times Review "..'Post-trip-hop'... Down-tempo beats, haunted-matinée-style organ playing, and electronic flourishes coalesce into something familiar yet wholly unique." -- The New Yorker April 2006"... lots of brooding sexiness... [Mudville] makes smooth seduction music." -- Village Voice, 2003"...Sultry vocals, poetic lyrics ... spooky pianos, haunting organs, subtle jazzy horns, electronic loops, [like] ... in a Jim Jarmusch film." -- New York Post, 2004"Deep poetry meets the best sloshy, downtempo beats you've never heard." -- ADD Reviews, 2004"Mudville surges with dark undertones, lots of groove. It sounds like something you'd hear in a David Lynch picture. " -- Modern Fix Magazine, 2004"Mudville['s] dreamy Sade-meets-Annie Lennox tunes are vibrantly atmospheric. [They] display R&B and jazz sensibilities [and] an affection for soft electro-pop." -- Time Out New York, 2004 From the Artist "Mudville's debut LP 'The Glory Of Man Is Not In Vogue' snakes through esoteric rhythms and beats care of Rubin and soars with the whiskey sour illustrative harmonies of Carino. Unmistakable hits such as the opening track "Hero of the World" and the twangy early morning fog of "Surfer Girls" make Mudville an enchanting listen. "The Glory of Man is not in Vogue" is a testament to the healing powers of rhythm and should not go undiscovered." —Nylon See more
