 Former Rufus
Wainwright musical
director Kristian Hoffman is, to paraphrase
Imperial Drag’s Eric Dover, “attempting to
do grand things,” and he does so with
sweeping grandeur. The guitars, played by
David Bongiovanni, are driving, dramatic,
and thematic. This record lurches between
styles like A Night at the Opera, and that’s
a good thing. Kayo Stereophonics.
