Which is odd because I love Silent Shout. Well, it's not really odd since the vocals are 1,000% better on Silent Shout, and it's much more consistent overall. But man, Deep Cuts is butts
I think that's odd. I really like the 80s-esque synthpop thing they did on Deep Cuts. Silent Shout is good but I never feel like listening to it -- I go for Fever Ray over Silent Shout every time.

edit: I do see what you mean though. The vocals are all over the place, but I like them. She often reminds me of Bjork and Alison Shaw of The Cranes. The guy's vocals are.. cartoonish but I think the album is overall a lot more fun than Silent Shout.
