...Tommy Furar (bass) and drummer Mark Doyle, Loud Lucy hails from Chicago. Since Loud Lucy's formation while Lane and Furar were still in high school, the band has gained a reputation as one of Chicago's most popular unsigned bands in recent years. In 1995, they released their debut, Breathe, proving that they could make the transition from live shows to the studio...

La Woman is a seductive mix of hip-hop beats, jazzy instrumentation and goofy yet provocatively surreal lyrics. "The velocity of time turns her voice into sugar water," sings lead vocalist Miho Hatori on the genially bizarre Sugar Water. Food--apples, artichokes, white-pepper ice cream, beef jerky--is the album's constant, almost perverse preoccupation. "When Miho and I used to hang around before we started this band, we became close friends because we love...
