Does anybody have an opinion on Neko Case's Fox Confessor?
I recommended it to Allyson several posts back. Unfortunately, I seem to be on everyone's nitwit filter.
Can't drink, smoke, diddle my willy. Doesn't leave much to do other than watch you blokes stumble around playing Agatha Christie.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
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.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
What can folks tell me about The Dresden Dolls. I've met any number of people here who've toured with them and it gave me the impression they were a local band with a lot of friends. But I guess I'm wrong, huh?

And iTunes has a new Decemberists EP out today called Picaresqueties.
Those were the bonus tracks that came on side four of the double LP vinyl version of Picaresque. "Bridges and Balloons", a Joanna Newsom song was additionally on that Believer comp CD of all cover versions.

The Dresden Dolls are from Boston. I seem to remember another Buffista from somewhere-that-wasn't-Boston also convinced that they were local to their area.

At least a couple folks I know from Tribe.net have toured with them, managed tours, etc. So what's their deal? Goth?

"punk cabaret" -- They're a duo, piano and drums usually. The music is rather Brechtian. Check out the website: [link]

Or rather, I remember somebody here had an opinion about it but was too lazy to search for it.

Joe, I just emailed you. You might need to fish it out of your spam filter.
Spidra, I think there might be some Dresden Dolls up at Buffistarawk. I like them very much. "Coin Operated Boy" seems to be their best loved song, though I expect opinions will vary. You can hear a live version of that song at their website.

Thanks, Jon. I'd probably like them. Although I'm just stupid enough to be balky about it because of how hip they are among certain circles here. Heh.
