i knew someone would say that

I dont particularly like the woman but the songs are good and i like her scream.  Shame she cant write her own songs but she definately has stage presence

Fleetwood Mac went to shite when Peter Green went crazy and left. I cannot permit myself to stay quiet on the subject as they went from a competent blues band into a folky pop band :x

A few from my playlist:

Siouxsie and the Banshees
Cocteau Twins
Lush
Arch Enemy
Giant Drag (Annie Hardy totally rocks)
The Gathering
Mazzy Star
The Bangles
Elysian Fields (Jennifer Charles = most seductive voice in rock)
Acid King
