Yes, Funeral Pyre is easily one of her best. Red Door, too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eI7fFavJQ0k

I started at a 3.5, too. It kind of just clicked at some point. It's far from perfect, so I understand. But I love it through (and with) its flaws. I hope her new one ends up connecting with you a bit more.

I love it, but that's because I see it as one of the best examples of making the most out of a minimalist set-up. The fact that Julien can draw so much emotion from a guitar, a voice, and the simplest of melodies is quite inspiring

Yes, I appreciate her so much for 'Sprained Ankle'. All that's ever looped is those harmonics, and the song still sounds beautifully textured in a live setting.

Second page of the old thread is amazing, Connor. I don't think either of us expected it to grow this much.

Apparently, there will be some piano and string backings on this new album. According to Julien, that is.

The high vocals at the end of Rejoice give me goosebumps

That's the one part of this I really remember. Haven't listened to it much since it first came out.
