Totally agree with Paul Cox. The implication that not liking CocoRosie is somehow anti-feminist, or demonstrates a fear of being “challenged,” ignores the fact that it might be even conceivable that someone might just truly find them unlistenable and empty. Come ON. At the absolute least, that’s conceivable.

I’m female, I approached them with an open mind, and I truly, honestly don’t like them. I realize the overblown praise is here to counter what people feel like has been unfair panning, but it’s still so over the top. It’s pretty hard to take these seriously when nobody really acknowledges this possibility, and instead blames poor critical reception on an inability to recognize our collective plight as human beings or something equally ridiculous.

for real, what was that? was that like, allowed?

this band has really grabbed me — something about his vocals in this video is jeff mangum-ish.
