简介:  Dreaming from the Labyrinth/Sonar del Laberinto, is unlike anything San Antonio singer Tish Hinojosa has done before. Hinojosa has largely abandoned the folk and country roots of her earlier songwriting--and the understated arrangements and descriptive lyrics that come with those traditions. Instead she has opted for an atmospheric, impressionistic art-rock that has more in common with Tori Amos and Sarah McLachlan than such previous reference points as Lucinda Williams and Emmylou Harris. This produces such awful examples of pseudo-poetry as "We'll sail upon a wind that blows above a misty sea, dancing barefoot on the soft earth touching edges of a dream" and such static, tuneless meditations as "Prisonary Life." Hinojosa switches back and forth between Spanish and English within each song, but self-indulgence sounds the same in either language.
