Throwing Muses discography
This is the discography for the work of rock band Throwing Muses.
Throwing Muses
Throwing Muses is an alternative rock band formed in 1981 in Newport, Rhode Island, United States, that toured and recorded extensively until 1997, when its members began concentrating more on other projects.
The group was originally fronted by two lead singers, Kristin Hersh and Tanya Donelly( stepsisters), who both wrote the group's songs.
Throwing Muses are known for performing music with shifting tempos, creative chord progressions, unorthodox song structures, and surreal lyrics.
The group was set apart from other contemporary acts by Hersh's stark, candid writing style; Donelly's pop stylings and vocal harmonies; and David Narcizo's unusual drumming techniques eschewing use of cymbals.
Hersh's hallucinatory, feverish lyrics occasionally touch on the subject of mental illness, more often drawing portraits of characters from daily life or addressing relationships.
Throwing Muses (1986 album)
Throwing Muses is the 1986 debut album of the band Throwing Muses, released on British independent label 4 AD.
This was the first album by an American band to be released on 4AD, which had concentrated primarily on British- based acts up to this point.
The release marked a shift in the label's direction; a year later 4 AD would sign Pixies based in part on the band's connection to the Muses, and by the mid-1990s much of the label's roster was made up of American bands.
David Narcizo
David John Narcizo, born May 6, 1966, in Newport, Rhode Island, United States, is primarily known for his work as the longtime drummer for Throwing Muses.
He has additionally played drums on Tanya Donelly's" Lovesongs for UnderdogsSleepwalk Beautysleep", and" Whiskey Tango Ghosts" solo recordings, also performing some of the drum programming on Kristin Hersh's" Sky Motel" solo album.
After the first dissolution of Throwing Muses following the group's 1996" Limbo" album, Narcizo started an electronic instrumental project called Lakuna, including the participation of wife Melissa" Misi" Narcizo, Bernard Georges, Belly's Tom Gorman, Kristin Hersh, and Frank Gardner.
Lakuna's" Castle of Crime" CD was released in 1999 on the 4 AD Records label and on Throwing Muses' own boutique label, called Throwing Music.
In the early 2000s Narcizo performed with Throwing Muses again at a couple of fan events called" Gut Pageants."
His trademark steady beat and agility with complex rhythms were highlighted in a self- titled Throwing Muses reunion album release in 2003, which the group supported with concert appearances in Europe and major U.S. cities that year.
Narcizo began increasingly focusing his time on his Newport graphic design firm, called" Lakuna, Inc.," co-owned with his wife, also a graphic artist.
Because his new business responsibilities made it impractical for Narcizo to continue touring full- time with Throwing Muses after the 2003 concerts were completed, he helped Hersh find a drummer for her emerging 50 Foot Wave band concept.
Narcizo had designed some of Throwing Muses' past album artwork; he continues with his Lakuna, Inc., graphics firm to help design album covers for bands like 50 Foot Wave, while providing print media design and promotional services for businesses in Newport.
