Reviews
Mojo (Publisher) - Ranked #46 in Mojo's 'The 50 Best Albums Of 2016' -- "[A] spectral slice of empowering yet melancholic electro pop about being strong enough to be who you want to be."
Additional information
It took a while to introduce Christine and the Queens' self-described "freakpop" to the world. The group's debut album first arrived in 2014 as Chaleur Humaine in frontwoman Héloïse Létissier's native France, then it was issued in the United States in 2015 as Christine and the Queens, and finally as a deluxe U.K. edition of Chaleur Humaine in early 2016. The acclaim for the album -- whatever its title -- only grew with each release, and rightfully so: on Chaleur Humaine, Christine and the Queens don't just embrace differences, they see them as beautiful. Within the album's lovely synth pop, there's strangeness and strength; "I'm doing my face with magic marker," Létissier sings on "Christine," a subtly irresistible track with the power of an anthem in the making. A similar independence pulses through the gorgeous "Saint Claude," which depicts the moment of walking away or committing entirely with heart-stopping beauty. As Chaleur Humaine unfolds, Christine reveals herself as less of a disguise and more of a prism for Létissier's distinctive outlook. She addresses her pansexuality throughout the album, subtly on songs like the aforementioned "Christine" and more directly on "Half Ladies" and "iT," a call-and-response track with the Queens where her backing band sings "She's a man now/And there's nothing we can do." This fluidity extends to the ease with which Létissier blends French traditions with contemporary pop, hip-hop, and R&B. She mixes all of the above on "Paradis Perdus," an interpolation of Kanye West's "Heartless" and Christophe's 1973 hit "Les Paradis Perdus," transforming them into something with its own emotive power. Elsewhere, the band balances the urgency of songs such as "Safe and Holy" and gentler moments like "Nuit 17 à 52" with a grace reflecting Létissier's former life as a dancer. Indeed, Christine and the Queens' emotional and musical agility only makes Chaleur Humaine's heartfelt, thoughtful pop that much richer and rewarding. ~ Heather Phares

- *****- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThis CD disc, insert & case are all in As New condition as described by the seller. Whilst only an “EP” of selected “best of” tracks; the price was still reasonable as it is a rare-ish CD (which I think only came in a box set). And price was inclisive of Australia Post postage. Packaging by the seller was very good. No broken case in-transit. Despatch by the seller & interstate delivery were fast. I’m very happy with my item, this transaction and this seller. ✅😀
- 0***a (83)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExcellent, much grateful ❤️ Posted and received beyond time expectations. Seller sent a confirmation message to me as well before dispatch. Item as described, and was packed very well. Excellent condition and value is appreciated. Have a wonderful day
- *****- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchasePurchase was exactly as described, new and unopened. I am totally satisfied. The seller was responsive and helpful both prior to and after the purchase. Package was well wrapped and protected. The only negative was in shipping fee, but getting something from Australia to the US comes at a cost. I don't count this against the seller. I was impressed with how quickly I received my order. The seller sent it and alerted me within hours of the purchase. I would order from this seller again.
