Dancing Madly Sideways is the fourth studio album by British-based American musician Marcella Detroit, released in July 2001.[1]

Background

Detroit explains the title and concept of the album as being "How I see the world; going crazy. Not progressing, not going back, just going sideways". The nontraditional electronic sound of the record stemmed from Detroit "wanting to do something more experimental". The album was released for free download through numerous MP3 websites, and as a mail-order exclusive physical release from Detroit's website.[2]

Aaron Badgley from Allmusic gave the album a positive review, saying "Here [Detroit] is able to assemble a tight band and produce a brilliant, angry, aggressive, exciting dance/rock album. Detroit's vocals are strong, as is her outstanding guitar playing. Fast, tasteful, and tuneful solos complete the mix and contribute to the originality of the music."[3]
