How It Ends

I love Devotchka! This album is beautiful. I first heard them on the Little Miss Sunshine soundtrack but had other songs of theirs pop up on one of my pandora playlists. Great stuff. I love the sound and it's different and mellow and brilliant.

I can't stop listening to my DeVotchKa CDs. Over and over. Because something new has to be devoured, not sampled, right? Anyway, I can't get over how pretty their songs are. They use so many different instruments, they're like a rock orchestra that's traveled around the globe and taken samples from music everywhere. Listening to it is like being transported. It's magical. The lyrics are poetic, sometimes so sweet you wanna cry and sometimes so sad you wanna cry. And Nick Urata's voice is one of my favorites now. It's almost operatic at times, dramatic, romantic, and like an old lover calling you home. The music is very cinematic for sure - grand and gorgeous. I'm so glad to have seen Miss Sunshine - not only because it's such a great film, but because I would never have known of DeVotchKa. And they have brightened my world. Even the sad songs are hopeful in sound if not in lyric, and I just feel uplifted after hearing them.

DeVotchka. Was introduced and now an addict. Can't get enough.

Nice music..Enjoy!!

Having just seen Devotchka at Red Rocks (west of Denver, CO) I was again struck by how much better the songs in this collection are and much of their other work.They are absolutely great in concert, by the way and it IS ok to bring food into Red Rocks, just not booze.

Great driving music.

Found this music from the movie Everything Is Illuminated. This particular CD is chock full of moody, poignant and bittersweet music with a wonderful sound that includes musical influences from Eastern Europe through South America. Awesome.

I enjoy the whole CD. I purchased it for two songs, "How it Ends" and "This Place is Haunted." However, as I listen to the entire CD I find that there are more and more songs that I do enjoy. It is worth the money and is a CD that I know I will revist later again and not simply turn into a coaster.
