Search - Foster, Supposed :: All the Leaves Are Gone

Last spring, you may have gotten a dose of opera school dropout Josephine Foster?s startling mixture of avant arrangements & acoustic mountain folk as half of the spare, twisted-up Appalachian duo Born Heller. To many, the effect of her voice has been nothing short of chilling since the duo?s Locust debut. After a 180° shift in style, Josephine Foster & The Supposed offer up a 12-cut blow out that?s exuberant and hard-hitting. On All The Leaves Are Gone, Foster embraces her rock?n?roll heart and intuitively summons up the mojo of legendary songstress Patti Smith as she rides the crest of a fluid, angular rhythm section that?s as triumphant as the sound of classic Television and trebly west coast psychedelia from decades gone by. Lyrically, stylistically and musically, this is a fearless, soon to be classic post-punk rock?n?roll record that delivers the goods from start to finish. All The Leaves Are Gone was originally dreamed up as a rock opera. Even enfant terrible Harmony Korine (Kids, Gummo) has expressed interest in adapting it to film. But before visions of Jesus Christ Superstar start dancing in your head, play this record ? and you?ll know there is something happening here that?s unlike anything else you?ve ever heard.
