Joyous 9 Aug 2005
Format:Audio CD
Right... first things first. If you've read the other reviews, you'll know by now that this is NOT LIKE QUEEN ADREENA. This is important, so it is written in capitals. What it does sound like is... different. Maplebee's voice sounds kinda (sorta) like a cross between her sister and Bjork, with some vocal bits (particularly on disc one) sounding rather Debut-ish. In a very good way.

Most of the songs are fairly slow, quite subdued, and flow along very nicely, thank you. It's quite surprising how easily you can be absorbed by the music and suddenly realise several hours have passed and you've listened to the whole album through multiple times.

My one problem with the album is that the 'Perhaps, Perhaps' cover sounds a little out of place compared with the rest of the songs, but I'll let that go because it's one of the best songs I've heard all year. Seems fair.

If you're even slightly interested in hearing more, buy this album. It's the most deserving 5* review I've ever written. Not that I've written that many. I'm not like that. Hm.

Maplebee 17 Dec 2004
By Kd
Format:Audio CD
I enjoyed listening to this album despite wrongly thinking it would be very much in the dark, rocky vein of Queen Adreena. I found that maplebee's take was much softer, with several bits reminding me of Tori Amos(without any direct references)and Bjork. The very soft, acoustic guitar background had some very beautiful work in it and some haunting noises in the background. I think this is definitely an album one grows into. The fact that Melanie Garside now also plays bass in Queen Adreena deceived me into thinking she would be her sister's spin-off, but this is definitely Maplebee's own record. Although Maplebee's music is not specifically my taste I know she will appeal to many.

By Mr
Format:Audio CD
Originally released some time ago as a 1-disc, home-produced solo album from the incredibly busy Maple Bee - She also fronts a band (Vertigo Angels), plays bass with another (Queen Adreena) and is a member of classical collective Medieval Baebes - Chasing Eva finally gets a proper commercial release. The original album returns as CD1 of this set, expanded with a video track and a complete second disc of original songs.

If you've never heard the more mellow side of Maple Bee, then you're in for a pleasant surprise. This is a double album of superbly crafted songs fusing acoustic and electronic instrumentation to create a complex atmospheric mix, featuring a voice of incredible range and beauty. For a quick and easy reference point think of an English Bjork. The heavily electronic cover of Doris Day classic Perhaps Perhaps could easily have come from an album like Homogenic.

Anyone new to Maple's music will find plenty of tunes to fall in love with here. And those long-time fans who remember her as Melanie Garside will be pleased to find three classic songs from the era of her 1996 album "Fossil".

N'EVA HEARD ANYTHING QUITE LIKE IT
It's been said and I'm saying it again. You no doubt got here through Queen Adreena. Ofcourse you did. Don't lie.

But this, said also many times before, is not Queen Adreena. Read more

drawn-out genius
I think the first thing to note is that if you are a die-hard Queen Adreena fan (like yours truly), then do not assume that this album is anything like.
