A dreamy album, it makes you creative too. This is great music to write a novel to, where two sisters are held captive in a medieval town, and escape into the modern world, banished, yet free, passing towns and judgment on the corrupt, brandishing justice, killing with their new found authority as Beauty, and Justice. It is then that their songs become a call to action, or a threat. The album up swells with new found supremacy, the removal of the old feudal state, clanism, and patriarchy. The songs announce, as if written 500 years ago, that there will be a day that women will become all-powerful, and that day is today.

Rarely do you hear music of such foreign origination, as if they come from pure imagination. The lyrics direct you to a world of past magic, like when you could fly as a child, or predict the future in dreams. The songs are so new, they disarm all notions, allowing the listener to interact with them with as much joy, and straightforward emotion as only foreigners and children could allow.

Like a wash, it takes away with it the abominable (by announcing it), the hateful (by revealing it), the commonplace (by defeating it), the disheartening (by living dreams), the despondent, (by arguing there are other ways to live), the hangdog (with new found strength), the heartsick (with one's own tale), the weeping (with crying), the wailing (with wailing), and the maddening (with a mad child's story of earlier sanity).

The voices portrayed in this album will make you stop whatever your doing and just simply listen. Fair and True, Blown Light and Valentine are nothing less than master pieces that make up for what the other 7 lack. Only cons atlre that for a good portion of the songs, the instrumentals tend to drown out the vocals. But besides that, this CD really bring me to a smile whenever I play it. I wish they come out with more in the future.
