Details:
"Spielerfrau''s dark pop has whiffs of Tom Waits and Balkan music, but the band gives the tunes a vaguely detached, goth edge that brings it all together unexpectedly well" -- Time Out NY, 1/13/05
"Spielerfrau is the brainchild of the Soviet emigre, former television-news anchor, journalist, and singer-songwriter Michael Idov. The trio has a sound that mixes heartfelt rock with intelligent lyrics full of Eastern European black humor and irony." -- New Yorker, 11/22/04
"Eerie guitars and dry-ice beats... Moody, intellectual dark rock showcasing frontman Michael Idov''s eccentric sensibilities" -- Time Out NY, 11/18/04
"Spielerfrau''s music can be placed in that relatively small category where artists like Tindersticks, Nick Cave, Bauhaus and Tom Waits belong. It''s a place where pondered, intriguing thoughts float on sparse arrangements, where banality is banned and character emerges naturally." -- The Deli
