The Observer, CD Review >>

Fourteen years after they began as an elaborate hobby, this Berlin troupe has matured into something special; an orchestral phantasmagoria that slides between Balkan rhythms, French chanson, Weimar cabaret and, well, whatever arrives on their radar. This third studio album mixes cheery instrumentals and Pogues-ish singalongs with a clutch of outstanding songs. "Adieu" (sung in German) is brushed with Marlene Dietrich angst, while the cadent "Solitaire" and the jaunty title cut sound in search of a nouvelle vague movie. Great fun. 03/15/09 >> go there
