"Monochrome In Technicolor" is a poetic folk electronica album by talented singer/songwriter Helen Sventitsky. Helen's sound incorporates many influences, including elements of folk, new wave, punk, rock and electronica. Helen is certainly an artist’s musician as she places her heart on display with her true to life lyrics. Her vocal delivery succeeds in displaying the content of her writing and she has an impressive range, sort of a marriage between Björk and Depeche Mode. The arrangements behind her are outside the box, intelligent, and nicely compliment her vocal performance. The quality of the recordings is great, and the overall product is very slick. Highlights include the opener, "You And Me And The Goddam City," which lives up to the title with great lyrics, great vocals and a powerful layering of sounds. "Incident At Motel 6" brings the sound down to a more intimate state with a beautiful melody and moving vocals. "Withdrawal Symptoms (An Addict’s Dream)” features a nice hook and extreme danceability. “Monochrome In Technicolor” is an impressive and creative album with unique female vocals, great storytelling lyrics, and an impressive overall sound that draws from a variety of genres. If you enjoy folky punk, solo female vocalists, and electronic music, give this excellent CD a listen.
