Feist's Let it Die from 2004 is a gem of a record. The best thing her and her band's ever done. She's pretty minimalist though so I can understand how her tour de force can come across as pretty underwhelming.

Perhaps they have a similar starting point, but with a different personality, ended up with a different product: anyway, the honesty of the Florist lyrics put me in mind of some of the artists mentioned here:-

Yeah, this sort of lo-fi stuff is super emphasized on melancholia, so it makes sense to having emo lyricism. Emo like Coheed or Mineral I realize though tends to have a lot cleaner production than something like Florist. Just more proof that sadness is one of the strongest emotional connectors for humans, especially when used in music.
