Comments:

I picked this up used because the fact that Tori Amos produced this made me curious about it. It's heavy-ish mainstream alternative rock, with female vocals. The lead singer's voice is not that unlike Tori's. I enjoy this when I listen to it, but it doesn't call to me from the shelves. (Neile)
