I just got Ys. Though I wanted Milk-Eyed Mender, I am very very happy with Ys. Her lyrics are some of the best I've heard. And her voice is amazing, I loved it right when I heard it. Though I hear it's an acquired taste.

she is good live. i like the way she came out onstage shouting and clapping her hands. apparantly she does that because she is nervous and it gets rid of it all.
she's also maried to bill callahan (smog) lucky fucker.

I saw her live once. Her woman-child persona made me twitch with silent rage. Her voice is incredibly abrasive to me. She is a very good harpist, but keep that music away from me.
Edit: Should have read the thread.I said this exact same thing on the previous page way back when. Apologies. |

i love milk-eyed mender still, but Ys....i still can't listen to it for enjoyment. i can appreciate it, and it's really grown on me since it came out, but i still can't like it, per se.

Bores the living shit outta me.
As for the vocals, I'd rather listen to Kristin Hersh. |

I remember I got a sticker for At War With The Mystics when I bought the Fearless Freaks dvd and I put it on my bass.
And then I promptly tore it off once I heard it. This is a cautionary tail, kids. |

This album isn't my thing, persé, but it's obviously amazing -- just not something I want to listen to all the time. Her voice is amazing, this album isn't boring in the least, and her harp playing is phenomenal. Really, there's nothing wrong with it, I just don't have the urge to put it in very much. Milk-Eyed Mender was much better.
Not sure what the criticism with her voice is; you guys can take nasally-ass Corgan, boring-ass Mascis, or .. Bjork, just.. Bjork.. but you can't take a chick with a great voice who can actually sing? Her voice is beautiful! Some of you are crazy. |

Thanks, but don't say that too loud; some people here dislike people who don't worship the indie rock mainstay bullshit...

I'm pretty sure I am on record as loathing the voice and/or vocal stylings of all three of your examples. I don't like squeaky voices. While we're at it, I will mention again my allergic reaction to Kate Bush, Tori Amos, etc. She is a very talented player and I would never say she "sucks," but that doesn't mean I can't find her music appalling on a personal taste level. |
