1) Poe- Haunted
here's what's written on the first page of the cd booklet:
"A few yeras after my father died me and my brother came across a box of cassettes-recordings of my father's voice.(...) Hearing his voice again shook me to my foundation. At first I couldn't bear to listen to him, then I couldn't stop. Finally I began sampling him. It was an eerie process. Had I resurrected a ghost? In some ways I had. Ultimately I entered into a dialogue with that ghost. Pieces of that dialogue compose the story contained on this album"
AMAZING ALBUM. I've been listening to it for 2 years already and i'm still not tired of it.
2) Shiina Ringo/Tokyo Jihen- any album, but if I had to pick one it would be "Shouso Strip"- great cd, great songs(especially yamini furu ame where the bit is made with violin and izonchou with the beautiful 3 minutes long guitar solo) and shiina's perfectionism- it's not by accident that the album's lenght is exactly 55:55
3) PJ Harvey- also any album, but if I should pick one it would be "To Bring You My Love" or "Is This Desire?"- beautiful work, full of emotion, rather sad(especially is this desire?)
also, Kate Bush "Hounds OF Love"
