4.0 out of 5 stars Near perfect, March 14, 2003

I came across Michal in a most unexpected place. While heading off to work, I passed the TV where my mom was watching "One Life to Live". Michal was performing on the show for some Valentine's special. I fell in love instantly and tracked down this CD.
Absolutely fantastic! Although some of the songs are a little too poppy for my taste, even the pop tracks are really good. Better than most of the pop garbage on the airwaves today.
I think my absolute favorite would be "Free Dirt" which is just as grungy and dark as the title would make you believe and yet you can tell there is emotion behind it. Most of her songs are like that. Think Alanis Morrisette without the high annoyance factor and more musical and singing ability.
I'd recommend this heavily to fans of Srah McLachlan & Heather Nova.

-I would.

With so much confectionary pop dominating the airwaves and music stores, It's refreshing to see that Michal writes and produces all of her own music. Her style is complex and melodic-ranging from driving angry beats in "Juliet's Refrian" to softer melodies as in "Violet Delight" and "Perfect". Michal's sound is reminicent of the famous Phil Spector "Wall of Sound" that defined the 60's. If you find yourself still hungry for a little catchy pop, you will find it in a more sophisticated form in "My Friend" and "Broken Boy". God Bless Michal for delivering us from teen pop and showing us that our young people still have a talent worth listening to!

5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful CD, September 15, 2001

This CD is absolutley amazing. It has hard, rock-edge songs like 'Juliet's Refrain' but has softer, deeper songs like 'The Light' and 'Ripe'. There isn't one song on here that I didn't like but some of my favorites are 'Ripe', 'April is Gone' and 'Broken Boy'.

What's sad, though, is that talented artists like Michal aren't getting much attention, not when pop groups are around. I just hope that Michal comes out with another cd soon, because she definitly has the talent to do anything.

So support talented indie artists like Michal by buying this record. You won't be sorry.
