Hope Sandoval is best known as the vocalist and figurehead of Mazzy Star. The alternative rock act issued three albums in the '90s and even had a hit single ("Fade Into You"), but nevertheless disbanded following the release of 1996's AMONG MY SWAN. Sandoval then mysteriously disappeared from the music world for nearly five years. The sultry chanteuse's first full-length solo effort BAVARIAN FRUIT BREAD served as her comeback.

Although a band dubbed the Warm Inventions--a conglomeration of 10 studio musicians--shares equal billing, it is Sandoval who is really the focal point. The somber singer plays the majority of the instruments and it is her breathy, laconic voice that carries each tune. The signature psychedelic guitar wail provided of former collaborator David Roback has been replaced with sparse strings and spatially conscious arrangements that hide behind Sandoval's whispered words. Highlights include "Lose Me on the Way" and "Charlotte," songs that sound as if they were recorded in a hollow cathedral. Slightly more upbeat numbers ("Suzanne" and "On the Low") provide subtle contrast with a harmonica-aided, bluesy atmosphere.
