Diamanda Galás is without a doubt one of the best-known avant-garde musicians of our age. This, her debut album, is one of the most varied, crazed, and indeed passionate vocal performances that one will ever experience. Naturally, the title track is based around Charles Baudelaire's rather famous poem of the same name, but the use of the voice to create the variations on a theme style of music which originated as far back as middle-era classical music (
The Goldberg Variations being a well-known example), but which was popularized with the jazz movement. This is one of the weirdest, and perhaps scariest pieces of music you will ever hear, but perhaps also one of the most moving, and the best.
