There is an art to putting together the songs themselves to tell a sonic story and she used to be so into fretting about every song and the order, and now it just feels like a big "here ya go, you do what you want with 'em". I have listened to the album, and am actually debating for the first time whether or not to actually buy it!! Odds are I will pre order it tonight in order to get the password for the ticketmaster presale - marketing victim ;) but there are songs I like on here but nothing grabs me emotionally yet and there are tons of moments I'd wished she had recorded or produced differently. Having said that I do feel that there is a bit more of an effort from her to experiment with sound!! Even though it sounds as if the most influential sounds came from Twin Peaks!!! I am glad there is discssion on the list! miss it!! - -ellen - --- On Fri, 5/15/09, Lisa Zwick wrote: From: Lisa Zwick Subject: Re: [pt] new cd To: "Laura D'Amico Holzmann" , precious-things@smoe.org Date: Friday, May 15, 2009, 11:17 PM Cn't say much about it yet, since all I heard were the 30sec clips. But I do have to say...I appreciate that Tori always releases FULL cds with 17 songs. Some artists release cds once they have 30-40 min worth of new material, but she always gives us our money's worth! - -Lisa - -----Original Message----- >From: Laura D'Amico Holzmann >Sent: May 15, 2009 10:45 PM >To: precious-things@smoe.org >Subject: [pt] new cd > > >I am only 5 songs into the record (mp3's) and I am getting very >excited about it.
