you forgot merideth monk.

what's your favorite Galas record? probably the most blistering and frightening 2 records i know are Satan's Litany and Schrei X. amazing.

took me a long time to get used to david sylvian's voice... at first it sounded horribly self conscious and trite in a "I'm a sensitive man", grew up listening to simon and garfunkel kind of way. but now i like it. i think a leap of faith is required maybe. he's playing here soon but tickets will be like 60 euros atleast.

What Meredith would you recommend? I mentioned the incredible Gotham Lullaby, but only discovered this through a Bjork Breezeblock session. Haven't got round to exploring her other stuff yet...

i don't have any recommendations on Meredeth as i'm not very familiar with her recorded work at all.

the following item is just gorgeous... thanks to "jardim".
