Fucking terrible this is what I get for trying to be nice.
>>
>>65865483
Are you European or something? She has a voice reminiscent of the 60s, and her presentation is unique and her arrangements are solid.
I mean different strokes and what not, BUT I feel like you think she's terrible because her vocals are unconventional.

To make a fallacious case for her, Julia Holter named her album as one of her favorites of 2015. But I mean Holter is fucking terrible too, right?

I think that's a heavy generalisation. I just kind of feel closed minded for not listening to more women.

You're missing out on a lot of great music by unconsciously restricting yourself from female artists and albums, even though I don't think you mean it.

I also love Julia Holter, my favorite artist of the decade. All of her work, especially Tragedy are great.
