I never really got the hype for Joanna Newsom, she’s an even more shrill and less impressive Björk imo. I appreciate her harp skills but not much else. C-

Wow. Had never heard of Joanna Newsom before this, but I loved it instantly. I love how the songs just kind of meander through different melodies, the tempo ebbs and flows, and accompaniment varies from just punctuation and countermelody from her harp to a full Elfman-inspired orchestra and the occasional jaw harp or guitar, all vibrato'd out. It's like a fey fever-dream, and even though the songs are 11 minutes long on average, I never got tired of listening.
Listened to this for another list. It's very very good. 4/5
