Red Mosquito

Im listening to her 2010 album Out of our minds, and its pretty good...any fans here?

Her Hand of doom proyect was pretty incredible too...

At the time, I enjoyed her 2004 album Auf der Maur, but it hasn't aged well.

why?

The lyrics are trash and the arrangements are uninspired.

I'm on the same page. I remember enjoying it when it came out and then finding it almost comical upon revisiting it years later. I think her voice is paper-thin and her songs (at least on that album, I haven't heard the others) aren't strong enough to sustain their lofty pretensions. For some reason, though, I suspect she's capable of much more.

So, there was a time when trash lyrics and uninspired arrangements were okay? I am not sure why it is dated if the writing is bad.

people grow up and their taste changes.

i really like this one.

Yes.. I really liked that first record when it came out...I agree that it didn't age well...but the singles are still killer.

That second record is more consistent...really good record actually. Both records are far better than 'Zeitgeist' or those latest 'Courtney Love' records...
