"Straddling the fine line between performance art and music is All The Pretty Horses. A punk/fetish/dark glam band out of Minneapolis, ATPH is fronted by a towering corseted amazon and backed up by musicians and dancers engaged as much in the visual participation as well as the sound...There's a unique dichotomy to this troupe. Unlike other performance outfits, such as Einsturzende Neubauten or Laurie Anderson, that loosely incorporate sound as a by-product, ATPH's music stands in the forefront relegating other expressions to that of sideshow...dares you to rethink social convention holistically and cruise lesser traveled byways without hindrance.
ATPH is beyond being a spectacle and should be accepted on their own terms for the music they design as much as for the novelty that comes with freaks, chains, and shiny leather. It takes a lot of guts to deviate from the norm; it takes even more to lay it on the line like All the Pretty Horses do. That's why they're interesting, they inhabit the real world - however unreal it may seem at times. But the music's why you'll keep paying attention. It bleeds soulfulness. It's authentic, It's powerful, and it's good."
