Ballads of Living and Dying was released in the UK meeting the same response overseas as it did in the States, with the Guardian calling it "uncommonly lovely...hard to get out of your head." 10 tracks.

Web interviewer, when asking if her dark world ever allowed for humor
"Lets hear a Marrisa Nadler joke" he challenges her
She shyly protests the description, and that she does like jokes, and proceeds:

"what did the bird say to the farmer?"
I dunno....
"Nothing-it was dead-the farmer ran over it with his tractor"
