Guitar Hero was quite probably made with this woman in mind. Her new album 'In Advance Of The Broken Arm' contains a dizzying array of riffs, time changes and irrepressibly chirpy song-writing. Recorded in her bedroom with the near-legendary Zach Hill of Hella playing drums and producing, the album shows a depth of songwriting and technical ability which you wouldn't expect from someone who's only just released their first album. Matching Hill's frankly outrageous drumming with some inspired finger-tapping is a masterstroke and results in some frankly jaw dropping sounds. I'd compare the sound to what Deerhoof might sound like if they had Van Halen on guitar and a drummer who's drank way too much coffee.Below are a few tracks from the aforementioned album for your delectation. I hope you enjoy listening to them as much as I enjoyed labouriously uploading them:
