Yeah, this album grew on me a lot throughout the year. Swimming Pool was my way in. Such a glorious vocal.

maybe more like St. Vincent if she wasn't so full of herself and trying so hard?
Speaking as someone who really digs the Anna Calvi record: woah there pardner.jpg

I miss the days when writing about music was like, This is how St. Vincent might sound if she switched to an indica strain for a couple of months.

well I gotta admit that I heard "Don't beat the girl out of my boy" and I thought "yeah, this an't but the Black Crowes of PJ Harvey." Yet that tune and the entire record has stayed with me, and she gives me a fix that PJ can't or won't anymore, in that AC can very much do the Maria callas/Diamanda thing like a muhfuh. AC is also a shredder!

has anyone ever seen her play? I don't think she's played in the U.S.

Miles better then St.V on guitar imo.
