I'm no Tori Amos fan although I've seen her in concert (good) and I own this album (superb). As a stand alone album it is has some amazing moments. Putting the damage on is one of my fav's. Get this album.

Musically sound, but I'll be damned if you can make head or tail of the lyrics. Put simply, you can see why the mainstream critics took against it.

4.5 superbjulesequalslove | November 9th 08

Just picked up this album (finally) after being recommended it by those who know how much I Love "Little Earthquakes." I've watched various live performances from this album and was impressed (It's Tori, of course I'm going to be impressed, she's incredible--esp live) but didn't know how the actual album would compare. Well, apparently all who recommended me "Boys for Pele" knew what they were talking about, I can't get enough of it. Tori never does cease to amaze me.

I'll be another to say that if you are a fan of "Little Earthquakes" it is safe to assume you will love "Boys for Pele."
