"walking with the ghost"...yup, it's fab. I'm so taken
with their singing and their quirky songwriting.
There's something in em immediately recognizeable BUT
weirdly inventive at the same time; like they came to
the indie/pop conclusion all by themselves, without
ever having been overinfluenced by anyone.
or maybe it's just that exotic Canadian flavour, who
knows. But you're right, frequently women's voices are
less appealing to me than men's (I know, I know, I'm a
sexist bitch) and these ladies fly right over that
hurdle with no problem.
also digging, in smaller bits until i find more by
them:
phoenix
aloha
milton mapes
comas
nourallah brothers
and does anyone know anything about the dammitheads,
and why they should sound exactly like Spoon?
