Listening to Ventriloquist more, the whole boat thing is really reflected in the music (and the great sleeve photo of her in the water), the music is mostly languid, but there are rockier moments, especially one of the bonus tracks.

Underrated album imo. There's a great interview on Vice that's not been linked here: Searching for Utopia: An Interview with KatieJane Garside (with lots of photos of said boat)

"Happy Now" is the song that really stayed with me from that album. Wonderful stuff.
Thanks for the interview link. I really ought to get more.

Crispin Gray is such a weird guitar player. I love it. Sounds sloppy and out of tune and careless, but dude is in total control at every moment of every recording.
yeah I think he's a bit underrated. I realise Daisy Chainsaw weren't for everybody but the guitars always sounded great to me
I'm going put on All The Kids Agree now
