Members six acre lake Posted February 8, 2012 Members Share Posted February 8, 2012 Cause everybody needs someone to spell out their name. PleasePleasePlease just send her along. [video=youtube;oyiywH4Cqu0] I must've listened to this song 20 times today. I have been revisiting Scout Niblett lately. Her new record has some killer duets with Bonnie Prince Billy. Her fuzz tone is to die for and the sparse Albini recording style suits her tunes perfectly. I you don't know now you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members christianatl Posted February 8, 2012 Members Share Posted February 8, 2012 Scout Niblet rules. Our drummer "turned me on" to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jordanjordan Posted February 9, 2012 Members Share Posted February 9, 2012 I didn't know she had a new album, but if this is anything to go by... It will be phenomenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members six acre lake Posted February 9, 2012 Author Members Share Posted February 9, 2012 It will be phenomenal. It's not new but her last record, This Fool Can Die Now, is in fact incredible. The album opener is a duet with Bonnie Prince Billy called "Do You Want To Be Buried With My People" and damn if that song doesn't choke me the {censored} up every {censored}ing time. So good.

Members live-I-evil Posted March 19, 2012 Members Share Posted March 19, 2012 Well I'm late to the party here but I was just listening to some good ol' Songs: Ohia and realized that it was scout singing on this song: I listened to all the videos in here and they didn't click immediately but now it's all on repeat. Thanks guys, I guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members chris_d Posted March 19, 2012 Members Share Posted March 19, 2012 I wasn't sure about the slightly OTT Chan Marshall worship of the first section(i wonder if she needs to pay royalties for how hard she is pulling on her style there) but i did quite like how it went once the drums came in. What should i start with to check out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I've learned is that it's not worth starting an argument with SAL about an opinion. He's always right even when he's completely wrong.

Members six acre lake Posted March 19, 2012 Author Members Share Posted March 19, 2012 It's just my opinion. It's not right, it's not wrong. I see quite a large difference between the lovely Cat Power and exquisite Scout Niblett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members live-I-evil Posted March 19, 2012 Members Share Posted March 19, 2012 Yeah, hmmm, I guess that doesn't sound too much like Chan at all. edit: here's the song I had in mind http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqYzCUflBtM&feature=youtu.be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members chris_d Posted March 19, 2012 Members Share Posted March 19, 2012 I feel like Sharon Van Etten has her own thing going on. The way she uses her voice is for a different sort of effect, and she seems to put it in a different sort of relation to what is going on behind it, than the way that Cat Power does either, it seems to me.Much more obvious Cat Powerism, in my opinion, would be the track from the OP, in which i hear a loud and obvious nod to these trax forinstance: Occasionally you will hear some really egregious Chanswiping though. Take for example this toon: And then maybe start this one at aboot 1:40 or so: That {censored} is just blatant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ToonHollow Posted March 19, 2012 Members Share Posted March 19, 2012 this. the scout niblett/will oldham song is pretty cool but otherwise, i'd rather just listen to chan marshall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
