Her Space Holiday – A Match Made in Texas
So there’s a guy who secretly likes another guy but won’t do anything about it because of the pressures of society. Then there’s a girl who secretly likes another girl but won’t act for much the same reason. Then they bump into each other, find they are perfectly suited and fall in love with each other. This is to show us just how fluid sexuality is and how no one should really give a shit about such things.
At least I think that’s what it is trying to get at. The problem with Her Space Holiday brainchild Mark Bianchi is that his ideas are far bigger than his songs. He wants to tackle big issues, which is of course fine, but is largely limited to do so within electronic pop songs. This is no means is a slight to his work, as I’ve enjoyed most of his albums, I just suspect that the big ideas are getting lost in the shuffle. Each one of his albums have shown flashes of brilliance, but he seems unable to pull it all together enough to put out the great album that is floating around his head somewhere.
