Production
Bosnian Rainbows was produced on analog gear, without the use of computers.[9][10]
Critical reception
Reviews were mixed; Rolling Stone said the album was impressive as an "art rock abnegation" but said they were left wanting more "excess" after Lopez's restrained New Wave style riffs on tracks like "Morning Sickness".[11] NPR called every song on the album "catchy and anthemic" with a "cryptic" lyrical style compared to Tori Amos.[12] Combining upbeat melodies with "hints of melancholy", Teri Gender Bender's vocals have been compared to David Bowie.[13]
Release
The album's first single, "Torn Maps", was digitally released on January 25, 2013.[14][15][16] The second single, "Turtle Neck" followed on February 11, 2013.[17]
