I'm sorry, I know I've been really stroppy about some of the records I've recommended of recent but this is so so so boring. sad yes

She does seem to have a limited melody lines she tends to use.

Like the quiet machine noises for a backing. yes

It's amazing how long songs that are less than 3 minutes long can sound.

Track 11 - Wayne Rooney.

Is she still singing words or is she just making sounds now?

But she's doing that aetherial Linda Perhacs thing.

The person who decided that Linda Perhacs's LP "Parallelograms" deserved a second look after 30 years gathering dust has a lot to answer for.

It's the distortion on the backing merging with the vocals that make it.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue 7 Apr 2020 - 20:33

Last track - West.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue 7 Apr 2020 - 20:34

Won't it be great if she really goes for it with this one? Excited

by Guest Tue 7 Apr 2020 - 20:34

Last one!

Tape noise as backing.

No, she's definitely singing

"Coirsayei'mbythe Elayraa'hayzin'"

Hissssssssssssss...

high style

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue 7 Apr 2020 - 20:35

I've just tried playing it at 1.5 x speed.

And it still sounds slow. rant

by Nightjar Tue 7 Apr 2020 - 20:37

Bit late for conspicuous lo-fi stylings, Peggy.

She's no Cynthia Dall. Colbert

by Guest Tue 7 Apr 2020 - 20:37

Well, I liked it.

I wonder if all the unusual noises used in the backing tracks were her idea or not. If this had had standard bass, drums, with a light country feel it would have been ~~like Neko Case~~ very ordinary in terms of songs and singing.
