DeVotchKa- 100 Lovers




I can’t think of a band that sounds nearly as diverse as DeVotchka does. Mixing Greek, Slavic, and Romanian with an indie pop folk sound, 100 Lovers is a fun listen and it has some really interesting instrumental work. The vocals are used more as an accent to the music than they are to really convey a message. I don’t think that there is a problem with that but as a result sometimes the tracks seem to lack a little substance. I love the variety and how easy it was to listen to 100 Lovers. If not for the incredible musicianship this album would be a pass but it is definitely worth a few listens.




Final Review- 85
