| | REVIEW |
 | | The fact that Alain Johannes (guitar, vocals) and Natasha Shneider (keyboards, vocals) consider Western music, "particularly pop" inflexible and confining, prompted them to explore a vast array of stylistic avenues, thus opening the door to different musical possibilities. |
 | | By fusing their interests in Eastern music; Indian, Pakistani and Bulgarian music with rock, pop, punk, classical and gothic music, the band has hewn for themselves a sound that is dynamic, colorfully textured; always eclectic and always interesting. |
 | | When Cornell hit the road in the fall of 1999 for a string of shows in the U.S. and Europe, it was Johannes, Shneider and Eleven skinman Greg Upchurch who not only opened for Cornell but formed the core of his own touring band. |
