Effi Briest – Mirror Rim
Biography
As one might expect, though joyfully played, there is an undercurrent of melancholy in their music. There have been comparisons to early Siousxie, but its primitive animism is as evocative of late period Slits. Still a comparatively young band they are definitely evolving their own identity.

Who cares who influences who I mean why are people so hung up on if a band sounds like another band. If ya ask me that's a good thing when a musician tries to emulate someone they like while adding there own twist it to. Everyone is going to sound like a mix of this this and that. No one sounds truly original with no influences from no where.

i hear next to no Siouxsie and the Banshees in this.... absolutely baffled that people would make that comparison!
-
TonvanderSchaft
they're both female singers and they both sound more than okay. That's where the comparison with siouxsie stops.

It's always a bit diluted when slapping a 'sounds like Siousxie ' label on a young band. I agree their sound does carry some of the tribalism and vocal stylings of the Banshees but to me I hear more Nico, Bunnymen, x-mal and Cranes influences in their sound.

Yeah, Rhizomes is a great album, pretty much underrated. Good production, vocals, feminin touching, desperate atmosphere... i don't know

"Primitive animism"? Is that description serious. I don't think "animism" means what they think it means.

I wonder if people still think about them as Siouxsie rip offs now that Warpaint are big. They were and are my proto-Warpaint and I love their sound. They are the missing link to Electrelane for me.

"siouxsie called and wants her style back " tag is perfection. But I really like the album anyway.

If Siousxie has sounds like Long Shadow I really have to start to listen... Despite that being against my anti gothic vow.

Really not that good.

hombremenguante
no idea why it has become so outstandingly fashionable these days to compare just about everything to this couple of old siouxsie lps. but i'm still wondering if perhaps someone might take note of the really heavy dub and krautmotorik vibes on that album instead. that's what it's all about here. i mean, listen to that bass, kids! siouxsie my ass.
