Hey Trollheart, I can't help but feel like you may be rushing through these songs. For example, it's odd how all you had to say about The Infant Kiss and The Kick Inside was that they were "nice ballads", when the first is very clearly about a woman who feels the urge to rape her infant son, and the second is about a woman who kills herself after being impregnated by her brother. They're probably Kate's darkest and most haunting songs, but I feel like you were so busy comparing her to other female musicians that you completely missed the point and the power of the way she approaches each song.

Saying that a female musician is channeling Lene Lovich simply because she screams during an emotional song, or that she's copying Siouxsie Sioux because she can be moody and gothic, is not only doing a great disservice to her and her music, but is also an oversimplification that shows a fundamental lack of understanding of each of those musicians.

That being said, I'm still enjoying each of your reviews. Believe it or not, I actually had less of an opinion than you did of the albums you've reviewed so far. It took quite awhile for them to grow on me.
