Despite the maturity that comes with releasing a 6th album, Ecstasy in the Shadow of Ecstasy finds new opportunities for rawness and vulnerability in a collection of songs about desire without end. The recurring themes are elation sought and remembered, the art and taste for living, romantic friends until the end, the impermanence of home, and roads not taken. Michelle often seeks out uncomfortable emotions, gracing them with grandiosity, countering them with humour, with a voice always upfront both authoritative and self-effacing. Confessional, tragicomic and sultry, EITSOE is an album of invitations – to a moment of all moments, love as a shared dream, psychedelic landscapes, and a glorious degenerate romance. In addition to solitary guitars and her classic lo-fi synths, this album also reaches heights of polished dark pop, lush arrangements with gypsy and latin influences, and symphonic epic rock.
