I recommend The Pierces, Neko Case, and Jesse Sykes and the Sweet Hereafter.
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Ooh, Neko Case! I have a lot of that, and I don't know why I didn't think of her. Excellent call!
I've been meaning to get The Pierces, too.
Perkins, is that a song you can post?

If you like Neko Case, check out Jesse Sykes. She doesn't quite have the pipes that Neko does, but her music is definitely haunting and mournful.

I will! I have no music budget for the next little while, but I can see what the samples sound like on Amazon. Thank you!

I think she's on Barsuk Records, and they usually have a free mp3 or two for download for each of their artists up on their website. I think that's how I found her.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
That fucking sucks, Hayden.
Let's hope it's one of those silver lining dealies and you wind up with a job you really like.
