Luna's Dean Wareham is an architect of despair, creating a swooning noir out of stately tempos and billowing orch-rock arrangements. This gorgeous side project with fellow Luna member Britta Phillips describes a universe of wounded romantics and lost souls (and covers Buffy St. Marie, Madonna, and others) wandering in Wareham's sophisticated murk. Nick Cave, I believe you know Lou Reed?
