Apartment was a musical project formed in Chicago in 1997. Apartment helped to pioneer part of the queer dark cabaret movement in Chicago. It was started by Christine Heinisch and Caila Lipovsky. The schizoid and absurdist lyrics of Caila Lipovsky combined with the off kilter, quick change, circus like arrangements of the band and Christine Heinisch made for a strange theatrical and melodramatic experience. The band played amongst the art punk and burlesque scenes of Chicago's north side and thrived there for several years. - From Wikipedia Apartment is kind of like a dancing toothless woman in a bar but somehow she's kind of attractive or, like a really sick family that asks, 'please come for dinner'. - Caila Disturbing, perhaps, but apartment never fails to entertain. MEMBERS: Caila Lipovsky - poet/vocals, Christine Heinisch (Gamma Like Very Ultra)- keys, cornet and bg vocals, Guitariella (Gamma Like Very Ultra - guitar Natalie Nguyen - cello, Barry Bennett (MiLkBabY) - drums, James Wallace (Polkaholics) - Bass REVIEWS: ...a fractured theatrical and sometimes sinister (but not goth) stew of strident witty art punk. - Monica Kendrick - Chicago Reader There is a charmingly dark, theatrical, witty overtone to both the lyrics and the execution of the various musicians on this disc.... What apartment does with this disc will be anyone's guess; the creativity and talent is nearly overwhelming, so much so that if that dark sense of humor wasn't present, it would be over the top. You get a cast of characters that fill this "Apartment"'s nooks and crannies with a devilishly delightful set of tunes. - Heidi Drockelman - Indie-Music.com
