I like it a lot but I don't reeeeeaaaaaaaally love love love crazy hard love adore the vox (don't hate me for that!). They're a little too soft, vibrato-ish and breathy.

yeah the vox are my least favourite part of talk talk. this is still wonderful though

Mark Hollis is the male vocal equivalent of Elizabeth Fraser

I don't think there is any equivalent to Fraser.

That's more like it. I'm surprised I didn't think of him.

tbh I only thought of it because I was trying to bait, but it's more palusible than intended oops :[

Good answer. I still think Hollis shares a similar quality to them w/r/t both SPIRIT OF EDEN and LAUGHING STOCK, though, in the way his vocal performance functions more as an additional instrument, unscored further by its incomprehensibility.
