Re-release of The Bells Of 12, critically acclaimed upon its release in 2006. Following this album, the artist disappeared for nearly 8 years, only to reappear in 2019 with a new record. Sufficient reason for this gem to be available again.
Between lysergic lullabies and torch-songs, The Bells Of 1 2 evokes the great Liz Frazer and, more generally, the golden years of 4AD: angelic vocals, aquatic guitar and piano drenched in reverb (Wonderland, Slo Fuzz, 1 2). Terribly sensual and languorous, Sophie Michalitsianos' ethereal voice dominates all discussions and captures all attention on an album entirely written, played, and produced by her.
