小简介
Miranda Sex Garden,唯一一队二十世纪最后十年才出现的却翻玩1520年的文艺复兴艺术的组合。最初似是唱些古色古香的情歌小调，接下来却摇身一变为时髦的baroque'n'roll（ rock'n'roll的变种？）分子并活跃在一些气氛热烈且作风前卫的艺术俱乐部。
1991年她们在 Portobello街表演，让在一旁随乐摇摆的星探Barry Adamson挖去了。深为这队有着“最纯最清的人声”的组合所感染，他邀请这三个二十出头的女子—— Jocelyn West, Kelly McCuster和Katharine Blake——为他的一张名为Delusion的Soundtrack献声，她们唱了“Il Solitaro”。接下来轮到Daniel Miller对这三个Purcell音乐学校的毕业生表现出颇不小的兴趣，两月之后邀请她们加盟了Mute公司。
Miranda Sex Garden的音乐跨越了古典、民谣和摇滚的界限，它超越了情*色之外表而达至神秘诡异的境界。他们从以三把甜甜女声为本的情歌怨曲往前跨了一大步，冒险的跻途于 极具腐蚀性的独立摇滚之路。
This creatively named band was formed when the members were studying vocal music together and started busking in the streets of London. Madra, their first album, is largely a capella, and composed entirely of traditional British songs. Their later releases — like 1993s Suspiria and 1994s Fairytales of Slavery — saw the group moving in a more rock/industrial direction, pitting their smooth voices upon layers of distortion, feedback, and heavy drums. Carnival of Souls was released in summer 2000.
