Review

A match made in heaven: Coyne singing a series of songs about the successes and failures of communication between lovers with the female perspective provided by German chanteuse (ex-Henry Cow/Slapp Happy/Art Bears) Dagmar Krause. Rather than sing duets, Coyne and Krause trade songs in a series of statements and responses. Occasionally the songwriting is thin, but the powerful singing and intense emotions more than make up for any lapses. This is a richly rewarding and frequently compelling record about love, communication and commitment that is never sanctimonious, obvious or cloying. Difficult to find (damn near impossible), but well worth the effort. ~ John Dougan, Rovi
