Thanks to Jamendo I listen to a lot of free music — since it’s free, you won’t mind so much if you wasted some bandwidth on a bad album. The only physical CD of a free album I bought, was Ruth Theodore’s Worm Food
and it’s absolutely worth any amount of money you’d like to spend :)
I bought it not so much for the possibility of ripping it to FLAC, just wanted to demonstrate that you don’t have to be Radiohead
to sell free music.
Overall she sounds like a dirtier
Ani DiFranco. Especially 3 Floors
sounds like the quintessene of Ani. Rash
also contains many parts that are more rapped than sung, with a flow that would make many hip-hoppers jealous. Ugly Faces
could also be a orchestra-backed swing piece, nice. And CO2
finally ends the album with a nice chanson/cabaret-style.
Folk is not dead after all.
