Grouper:
Dragging A Dead Deer Up A HillI think I mostly prefer this style of album to her earlier works which are saturated in reverb, and there’s a lot more light shining through it’s mood, (though
Cover The Windows And The Walls is a great earlier album.)
Got
Dragging’ earlier this year, but sadly haven’t played it much, if I’d gotten it last year on its release then I might have been tempted to put it into our ‘Album of the Year’ thread. If you want moment’s of evocative and faintly cocteauesque vocals, electro acoustic’s and touches of drone then give it a listen.

Thanks for reminding us about her (I think it may have been Steve Roby who posted previously) I meant to check her out, some of the singing and effects are not unlike a brighter version of Grouper.
Her
Sanguine album is a little bit too flowery for me, but I’m very interested in the
Florine EP, (certainly the itunes samples have got me putting her on my wish list.)
