Lex word-for-word OTM, alongside Just Jack this makes me seriously question certain peoples' right to music. ATTENTION ALL U 'STREET LAUREATES', UR FAUX-NAIF 'POETRY' IS THE MOST BONE-HEADED, UNLISTENABLE SHITE I HAVE EVER HEARD, AND UR BACKING TRAX AREN'T EXACTLY CORDON BLEU EITHER

And at least he did it with a modicum of natural charm (although I personally dislike his music). These people, though, are charlatans of the very, very highest order.

ok i've read a few weekend on sunday pieces on this broad, but none of them even tried to describe her music. perhaps i will visit "my space" and figure it out for myself, but nothing her boosters or she herself have said recommend her. i'm guessing that her backstory will be revealed sandie thom-style pretty soon. she's a young'un so it's not her fault entirely, but the journalists who promote her are running-dogs.

i'll be interested if she does some more folky stuff. i seem to remember she sings well.
― Frogman Henry, Sunday, 22 July 2007 15:41 (sixteen years ago) link
she's being produced by paul epworth. probably not going to be too folky?

She is a terrible artist. That she was strumming a guitar 6 months ago and is now riding beats as an "Electro" artist proves that she is just a manufactured entity.
I am offended by the LeTigre comparison, they roll legit.

― That one guy that hit it and quit it, Sunday, 2 September 2007 10:46 (sixteen years ago) link
penate (with a wispy thing above the 'n') if my memory serves correctly. we had to promote this crap on our radio station. although in future i'll be strictly off-message as far as this sort of music is concerned.
― Just got offed, Sunday, 2 September 2007 10:50 (sixteen years ago) link
Okay I am now mad because I bought this because I really liked "Foundations" and I haven't heard the whole album yet and this thread has made me afraid to.
― HI DERE, Sunday, 2 September 2007 16:38 (sixteen years ago) link
saw this on telly this morning bittuh fittuh rubbish

I mean sounds like a bad catherine tate impression
― RJG, Sunday, 2 September 2007 16:57 (sixteen years ago) link
Okay I still like "Foundations" a lot, even though I can see how the quaver in her voice could eventually make me want to kill.
― HI DERE, Sunday, 2 September 2007 18:49 (sixteen years ago) link
Halfway through, she is an order of magnitude less tiresome than Lily Allen.
― HI DERE, Sunday, 2 September 2007 19:14 (sixteen years ago) link
did you pick up the hard-fi record too?
― RJG, Sunday, 2 September 2007 19:29 (sixteen years ago) link
No, should I?
PS I have found some of the tedious bits of this album.
― HI DERE, Sunday, 2 September 2007 19:30 (sixteen years ago) link
sorry depends what you're looking for I guess!

-ly rubbish?
― electricsound, Friday, 12 October 2007 14:43 (sixteen years ago) link
yes. the "This-Is-My-Bod-ee' bit especially. she completely ruins the reasonably pleasant music by singing over it.
― blueski, Friday, 12 October 2007 14:45 (sixteen years ago) link
Possibly the worst thing in the history of humanity
― Tom D., Friday, 12 October 2007 14:47 (sixteen years ago) link
makes me nostalgic for lily allen.
― That one guy that hit it and quit it, Friday, 12 October 2007 14:48 (sixteen years ago) link
then this new one, with one line of lyrics and very little of her voice, should come across as her best effort to date
^^^ remoinds me of this Lou Reed quote after the commercial success of "Sally Can't Dance" - "This is fantastic — the worse I am the more it sells. If I wasn't on the record at all next time around, it would probably go number one."

lex is pretty OTM though, I'd forgotten how precious and needy her album was and it seems she's gotten rid of that impulse by forgoing the actual songwriting process

Is it the same kind of stuff as the 'Underestimate The Girl' track, or is it more in line with her earlier stuff?

it's definitely in the new vein, only less imaginitive

https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p07ctstz/kate-nash-underestimate-the-girl
Underestimate the Girl is an intimate portrait of British singer-songwriter Kate Nash and follows her journey over several years in her pursuit to remain a creatively and financially independent artist. After being dropped by a major label, Kate learns (the hard way) how to navigate the music industry as a self-sufficient businesswoman and creative.
