Wilhelmina Baker’s collision of opera, storytelling, and unsettling whimsy might remind you of a time when artists like Tom Waits still puzzled listeners. Mastermind Nicole Gruter’s skilled, operatic singing helps to tie together unholy delights that encompass everything from electronic glitches to creepy medieval chants. Don’t fear Gruter just because she thinks of all this stuff; fear her because she somehow tweaks it into eerily effective songs. - The Onion, November 2007
