i wish women would stop trying to look so typical.. i love her voice and wish she was less girlie and more like her voice, i guess its marketing. I hope we start singing about the planet and ourselves in relationship to it, hoping this song is about that and not just her love affair
@blacklebee Why can't she just be how she is? Maybe she likes being this way. Why should it matter? If you want to sing songs about the planet go ahead, if she wants to that's fine, but if she wants to sing about relationships who has the right to criticise her?
she can sing about whatever she wants, i think we are all related to everything= i just hope it is in our consciousness more for our own sake and all other living things...... i have the right to my beliefs and can think what i wish
@blacklebee That's cool. It sounded a bit like you were judging her a bit, that's all. Think what you want, everyone should have opinions or nothing would ever change, but does your opinion have to be that she is only doing the way she does things due to marketing? Art is about self expression and not always about making a political/environmental point. Well I suppose that's just my opinion about art really.
I think she is so awesome also. After reading about her i do think that she goes into a deeper level and relates herself to the world in a very universal way. I guess I see the way women dress in music as being contrary to what i hear come out of their mouths. Not particularly in this video but the standard. i think the music industry does that to women more than men for sure. there is an acceptable way to look. That is why i like cat power, she is herself and dresses as she wishes.
@blacklebee After meeting her last night, I can tell you that she is NOT a slave to lame marketing tactics. She does what she wants. She is so humble and completely herself on stage. The way she danced to this was mesmerizing and completely and wholly Zola Jesus.
call me crazy but I solicited Zola Jesus to make a video for her years ago and sent her my video links. I think she copied my Radiohead video to be honest. Google "Music video by David Herrera" and check it out.
Can people stop saying "atmosphere" If you think that then how about we just say joy division sound like kraftwerk and so on and so on. It's music right? It's all connected. This young woman is making some of the most important, accessible music today. I'm so glad she is getting the attention and respect she deserves but lets not cheapen her efforts but poorly comparing zola jesus to music from the past. Thank you.
I love her EPs, though I find her full lengths are a little hard to get into. That being said, this is one amazing artist, and this song is so good it's unreal.
Heard this for the first time tonight on the way to work, excellent stuff, reminds me of Susie Sioux of the Banshees fame. This is one very talented artist, I hope she goes far.
Who cares who she is influenced by, the music speaks for itself and she has a sound all her own. You like it or you don't? Don't trip. Personally, I think she is fantastic. She is definitely not ugly. Saying someone is ugly, makes you ugly. Be nice.
she definately sounds like she has been influenced by the 4AD label and Siouxie & The Banshees, it's so obvious. It just depends on what song she is singing on. She is extremely talented, great to see this style of music. very unique and cool - her music and videos.
Music comparisons aside...I can imagine myself kneeling down in front of a T.V. set thinking "They're here"...(from Poltergeist)...yet the song isn't really scary...to me it's more about being sad, confused and afraid of what we don't know or understand...ourselves. Who is listening? Who really cares?
Never heard of or listened to Zola Jesus till I saw her opening the night for Fever Ray in Brixton 3 weeks ago. I have to say I was impressed although I got there just in time for the last 2 songs in her set (one of them being the tune here).
