Claire VoyantLove Is Blind - Metropolis/Outside MusicBy Chris TwomeyThis seven-year-old band from California makes a lush, romantic sound that has mesmerized an international body of fans. Similar to the "heavenly voices" school of bands inspired by the classic 4ad sound, Claire Voyant centres on the dreamy vocals of Victoria Lloyd, who sounds not unlike one of Nettwerk's Sarah McLachlan style singers. In beautiful tracks like "Mirror" and "Warm" her two bandmates support her voice in sumptuous layers of keyboards, atmospheric guitars and programmed rhythms. Their rockier side gets compared to Shirley Manson and Garbage, but these dynamic moments are a response to the passion of the music rather than a reaction to the charts.
