I have to say I’m not entirely sure how I feel about the promotion that goes around Feist’s solo work, especially The Reminder. They make her out to be too precious. Someone told me this morning he thought she sounded like Cat Power, and I said: no! no! no! He said the stuff he’d heard on her website were all mellow. Which brings me back to my recent point that Broken Social Scene shows off her voice much better than her own work. In truth, Feist is a tap-dancing, rapping, silly-clothes-wearing punk that hangs with maniacs like Gonzalez and Peaches.
