What proved to be the final Evangelista album found the collective exploring a new approach, Carla Bozulich now often working with one or two key performers per song or a small core group, generally exhibiting a more hushed and sometimes more specifically structured approach. The stately march and chant of the title track, with Tara Barnes adding bass, sets much of the tone throughout, with songs like “Bells Ring Fire,” the fully solo “Die Alone” and “Hands of Leather” emphasizing space around Bozulich’s singing and the surrounding music.
