Product Description
Ruby: Mark Walk, Lesley Rankine (various instruments); William Rieflin (guitar, drums); Eric Anderson (bass).
Recorded at Mommy's C**t, Butler and Soundhouse Studios, Seattle, Washington between June 1994 and January 1995.
Scottish singer Lesley Rankine, former vocalist for the punk band Silverfish, and collaborator Mark Walk attack the subject of sexuality's contradictions utilizing a hypnotic blend of programmed trip-hop and Rankine's chameleon-like vocals. Her strangely powerful voice, and the album's vaguely menacing lyrics, draw the listener into an atmosphere that is by turns sexually provocative and sinister. Even the album-title itself--salt peter being a substance known to ignite dynamite as well as dampen the male libido--plays off this tension.
Rankine is always in control, as she illustrates on "Heidi," singing in a deceptively gentle voice ("I can speak softly because I have so much power"), allowing the occasional hint of a Bjork-style growly trill to betray her vocal strength. On other tracks, like the biting "Tiny Meat," Rankine sneers in a voice raw with blunt emotion, eschewing any hint of shrillness. SALT PETER is captivating and disturbing--and, ultimately, unshakable.
