I just discovered this record and I love it. Can anyone recommend anything recent that has a similar feel?

have you heard the the follow-up EP I'm Gonna Stop Killing or the Geraldine Fibbers' first album Lost Somewhere Between The Earth And My Home? those are probably the closest things Carla's done.

as for other artists, I'd recommend Eleni Mandell, probably starting with Miracle of Five (which Nels Cline also plays on)

Thanks for the suggestions. I've already been checking out Carla's other work. I'll give Eleni Mandella listen. I'm looking for more recent stuff.

haven't given this my undivided attention yet, but after a couple of plays it sounded like their best one yet

I've always had to make an effort to get into her Evangelista material, but it's usually worth it. However, the first time I put on Lost Somewhere... I fell in love immediately. God, I miss the Fibbers.

yeah the Fibbers were so amazing that i'll listen to anything Carla does for the rest of her life, although sometimes it's hard to not keep comparing the new stuff to that bad. i like that Evangelista is very much its own thing now, though, i kinda never thought i'd see the day when she kept with the same project for 4 albums straight. Hello Voyager is definitely my favorite but this new one is good too.

two years pass...

Thoughts on Boy?

I think it's amazing. Her best work yet.

oh man, I didn't know this was out, thanks for reviving this thread!

'her best work' is a really really high bar to meet for me personally, but it's definitely good, feels like it goes off in a different direction from the Evangelista stuff that's kind of exciting and unexpected. "Lazy Crossbones" sounds like the immediate standout for me.

some dude, Sunday, 9 March 2014 12:50 (ten years ago) link

Boy probably deserves a thread of its own. People need to hear it. Drowned To the Light and Danceland are my standouts but there's really not a bad track on it.

three years pass...

A Twitter comment the other month from Christina Carter about Evangelista and its brilliance made me realize that she really still hasn't gotten her due, has she. So for Shfl, I did this:
