$2.38The Story
'Nobody Knew the Time', Bay-area band Beasts of Paradise's debut album, is that pop rarity: something entirely new that sounds as if its roots go all the way back to the Neolithic. The seven Beasts - five women, two men - among them play dumbek, double bass, didgeridoo, organ, bagpipe, and 'home-made one-string rehab,' among other exotica. But the arrangements on this entirely acoustic CD are built around the twin poles of Imhost concert harp and, on four out of five tracks, the floating, haunting voice - sort of Bulgarian field-voice crossed with British/American folk and East Indian melisma - of Eda Maxym. 'Nobody Knew the Time' drew comparisons to Dead Can Dance, Loreena McKennit and Enya.
