ELEVEN
Of their second album Eleven, Andy Hinds wrote for Allmusic: “Anyone who lumped Eleven in with the grunge glut of the early 1990’s simply wasn’t paying attention. Although it’s true that the trio’s excellent self-titled album (actually their second) was mixed with the guitars loud and fuzzy, the musical sophistication that distinguishes Eleven – including not only compositional prowess but sheer chops – leaves most alternative bands in the dust. Led by the husband/wife duo of Alain Johannes (guitars and lead vocals) and Natasha Shneider (keyboards and lead vocals), their primary calling card is a pair of extraordinary voices, both of which are capable of raw intensity and soulful understatement.”
