The Ecstasy of Saint Theresa is a Czech alternative rock band, formed in 1990 by Jan Muchow, Jan Gregar, Petr Wegner and Irna Libowitz.〔http://www.allmusic.com/artist/the-ecstasy-of-saint-theresa-mn0001241930/biography〕 Early shoegaze influences included Siouxsie and the Banshees, Cocteau Twins, and My Bloody Valentine. The band released the EP ''Pigment'' in 1991. This album, along with 1992's ''Susurrate'', featured a punky feedback-drenched psychedelic rock sound. From there, the band moved into ambient and techno influenced soundscapes as evidenced by their 1993 album ''Free-D'' produced with Guy Fixsen. ''Free-D'' marked the end of the original line-up and something of a hiatus for the band releasing only the 1994 remix EP ''AstralaVista'' in the following six years. 1999's ''In Dust 3'' featured Muchow and the siren-voiced Kateřina Winterová on 11 tracks of laptop-pop and post rock ambience. As opposed to the extremely relaxing pastoral feel and dubby continuous mix of ''Free-D'', this album consisted of very strange pop songs voiced by actress-singer Winterová backed by the electro-acoustic soundscapes of Muchow. This downtempo sample-infused style was further pursued on 2003's ''Slowthinking'' album released with an accompanying ''Fastmoving/Slowthinking'' DVD featuring the single ''I'm (Not Really) Optimistic''. The ''Watching Black'' album came out in 2006, and in 2011, the band released the ''101010'' DVD, featuring a live performance recorded on 10 October 2010. ==Line up== * Jan P.
