I feel like people are reading these posts as angry or something. it's just discussion.

Thank you for providing a very thorough and helpful answer! I certainly didn't intend it, and I think it feels far fetched to label it as demeaning, but I do get the gist.

but then he would have never even mentioned it not being "kinky" if the album title wasn't what it was.

maybe it's just me, but I find the cover to be rather androgynous.

Deviant.

I agree - just the discussion where there always seems (or needs?) to be almost a separate line of dialogue or discussion whenever a female artist might attempt something to simply incite a discussion regarding gender roles reminded me of a similar incident

Actually, now that you come to mention it, I'm not even entirely certain if that IS a lady on the cover @.@

as a bleeding heart feminist killjoy all i'm going to say is that any review of Jenny Hval that doesn't address and engage with her explorations/deconstructions of gender identity as manifested in a world of misogynistic strictures is automatically going to be lacking, no matter how well written

also i lvoe tis

I realize how this review only ends up making me look worse and worse but I'm slowly coming to the realization that my initial opinion of the review was incorrect first time around.

I don't feel like your opinion was incorrect, it just seems to have been misguided...if that makes sense.

But I don't have much of a say since I have only heard her first album.

Still very well written, as pretty much everyone agrees.

I'm probably completely misreading the situation to be honest

ehm dude, irving, calm down. let the whole thing cool out and then start this again, from a 3.8 to a 4.7 in a few hours just after a tiny little controversy doesn't seem very...

ah fuck it

I know that any attempt on my part to embellish this record will come across as hollow due to the 3.8 which I initially branded it with, but let's just say I took a few hours to properly sit down and absorb what Hval has done...and I'm pretty sure that I was wrong first time around.



Sigh. My "professionalism" - taking a beating once again.

Also, Lewis, do tell me if this is slightly better? =S

Irving, better just go to the Winchester, have a pint, and wait for this to all blow over.

Exactly what I was worried about. I really can't win either way.
