White Widow: A Psychological Thriller - Soundtrack

"A Psychological Thriller and its concept spiked by the interest of Brooklyn artists Jamie Dwyer and Justin Ulloa (Electric Wonder Creative), who produced an original animated short film under the same title. Inspired by White Widow's music, the film is a fantastical and delusional portrayal of an unraveling love affair, set to the full album. In the tradition of silent films, White Widow's upcoming tour will screen the animation as she and her band perform the score. The collaboration between White Widow and Electric Wonder Creative will be expressed live and on screen,illustrating the beauty, the lust and the lurking darkness of A PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER" (http://www.whitewidowmusic.com/p/about-white-widow.html, 2012).

As a soundtrack, it definitely helps to have seen the film or at least have some visual reference with the content to understand the full effect of the music. However, the music is powerful enough on its own to deliver the main message. Carla Patullo, a Berkley College, multi-instrumentalist, lead singer, and song-writer, plays most of the main instruments on this album. She gets support from Mark Williams, "Gumby", performing upright bass and cello, Colleen Butler, on bass, and drummer Marty Mack.

I agree with other reviewers who compare Carla Patullo's vocals to a good mix between that of Pat Benatar and Martha Davis of the Motels. The music encompasses the theme of horror or psychological thrillers. If you like that genre, then this is a great album of music that will fit well within your collection.

The musicianship is up to the high standards you would expect from someone from Berkley College.
