The Abominable Homan

I just can't get over the beauty of her voice. I've been trying to see if I could find another vocalist as good but haven't had much success.

The girl from Asobi Seksu sound similar and they're dream poppy too.

I have an album of theirs but haven't listened yet. Thanks for the recommendation, if they are like Cocteau Twins I'll probably be posting that album in this thread soon.

Listen to Citrus. That's their best release to date.

I have been on quite the Devin Townsend kick lately... tonight, I just found myself compelled to take a thorough and comprehensive headphones listen to Synchestra... I remember this album as the soundtrack to my big move to the United States, basically... this was the big album for me that year!

Great album, probably my favorite non-SYL Townsend one. Vampolka's a lot of fun.

vampolka is awesome, and I love the way it transitions into Vampira, and then that song gets progressively heavier... overall a really great part of the album!

Mmmm, indeed! That right there is one great release. I like how throughout the course of the album the mood shifts from dark, to more hopeful and determined.

EDIT:

Boris- Flood
Wow, ok, how do I describe this? Drone-post-doom-rock? I don't know, but this is really gorgeous music, and is definitely my favorite of what I've heard from Boris (Flood, Pink, and Amplifier Worship). It can be very emotive and tranquil, but eventually crescendos and become very heavy and loud before settling back down again. Kind of like the title of the album.

Bleh. Here, this guy on RYM can describe it better than I can:
"It's kind of hard to explain this album to someone who has hasn't heard it, over the internet is even more difficult, well here goes,

Track 1 goes like this: do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do and so on for about 15 minutes.

You'll know what I mean when you hear it."

EDIT2: This post has made me realize that I can not write worth a damn past 2 AM.
