Morcheeba: The The Antidote

I had such an odd mix of feelings when I found out Morcheeba had a new cd. I was ready for it, I planted myself firmly ready to go…but, that soon ended when I got this cd and realized something was VERY wrong. SKYE is gone!!!! There is a new vocalist who just DOESN’T do it for me.. Skyesound brought the soul to Morcheeba, and her airy, seductive vocals were a HUGE part of what made this band so incredible. Former Noonday Underground member Daisey Martey, a powerfully voiced singer who now sits in the lead position. There is something too different, but maybe change is just difficult for my ears. I like the fact that I can catch a hint of the Velvet Underground throughout this release…..I will give it more chances….
