Reviews:

Like Dead Can Dance, black tape for a blue girl dramatically flirts with symphonic decay. The Philadelphia City Paper

black tape for a blue girl s achingly beautiful neo-classical, ethereal, darkwave classic is given a 20th anniversary re-release with a bonus disc of additional music. Long droning deep tones overlayed by intense vocals from Oscar and Lucian as well as rich cello and violin arrangements from Vicki and Mera. The results are deeply mesmerizing and melancholy passages. The finished 77-minute album is Black tape s masterpiece: exquisite and stunning. Wrapped up in the emotions of betrayal and salvation, searching for the deeper fragments of a truer reality somewhere between sadness and hope Sam s words and harmonies weave a soft, opaque veil over a world where feeling is foremost, emotions on the surface, the heart laid bare.

Included on disc 2 are the ultra rare pieces, originally released on the "with my sorrows" maxi on Italy s Amplexus label; also featuring 3 live songs recorded at the 1996 Projektfest (the first time live tracks have appeared on a black tape for a blue girl release).
