I hope this helps spark some interest in 4WB! Downbeat Magazine, October 2000 by Jon Andrews FOUR STARS * * * * Classically trained on keyboards and voice, Bezar creates textured, haunting art-rock. Her extended vocal range and dramatic delivery should instantly appeal to devotees of Kate Bush and Jane Siberry. Bezar's third self-released disc beautifully synthesizes elements of new music, jazz and pop. She favors intricate, cyclical figures on synthesizers, but her piano solos project a distinctly jazzy perspective. Morris Acevedo's wailing guitar serves as a complementary voice. Thoughtfully composed songs, such as "Velvet Eye" and "Lead," hook the listener with urgent vocals, oblique lyrics and passages of exhilarating release. ------------------------------ End of dream-gasoline-digest V3 #9 **********************************
