Synopsis

Album Description
After living in Austin for nearly three years, Marc Bianchi moved into a little house in the middle of nowhere in Northern California and began recording this release. In extreme isolation and creative re-evaluation, the content of Her Space Holiday's sound and meaning became much broader than previous works. Short stories starring characters have replaced short-sided, one person perspectives. Rather than feeling like you're looking into the life of one songwriter, the listener walks away with a sense of getting a deeper glimpse into the world around them.

CD Reviews

The Past Presents the Future...literally, an evolution of He
Alex Hortin | Seattle WA | 10/06/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I can't think of a better title for this album, since it is very evident that Her Space Holiday is moving on from their established sound and themes of deep desperation, loneliness and love. Luckily they do this without losing the personal connection that is so much a part of what makes Her Space Holiday one of my favorite bands. Few people have come close to putting such true and honest feelings into such beautiful lyrics as Marc Bianchi, with the help of his laptop.



His past albums seem to have been centered on love affairs, drug abuse, and always deep depression. This album seems to move into a brighter light, yet keeping with serious subject matter. Bianchi's lyrics now touch on powerful themes, such as his own exploitation of his feelings on his album and acceptance of sexual orientation differences in America.



If you have listened to The Young Machines, this album is the perfect follow-up. If you are new to Her Space Holiday, be sure to check this out, and all of his other albums, especially the amazing Manic Expressive.



I cannot stress how personal a connection all of Her Space Holiday's albums make, and this one is no different.

"I wanted to like this cd so badly. I gave this several listens and still could not begin to even start tolerating this release. I liked Manic Expressive, I even liked the Young Machines but this one was a bit of a stretch. His lyrics are garbage, don't kid yourself otherwise, I overlooked it in Young Machines but this is inexcusable. Someone needs to tell Marc to stop writing about the pains of being a musician because its not relatable, and quite frankly if you can't handle the criticism stop putting out records."
