The most horrific attempt at imitating Shinead O'Connor I've ever had to endure.

I forget the title, but it's some interviews and background then a nice concert of traditional Irish folk mixed with African beats... good stuff! |

I'm scarred for life by the "linger" song. It lingered all right. Like bad gas in an elevator.
I hope they make a big comeback by selling records to their fans (just without radio play).

Their first CD was tolerable, but her voice was like nails on a chalkboard.

I already have to play two of their stupid songs with my cover band, although my singer's voice is way easier on the nerves.
Oh, and their bassist sucks big time. Friggin' boring lines. |

Ugh, from what I've heard of them so far, they're pretty terrible instrumentalists, all of them. I don't mind Dolores's voice, although I admit it is a bit grating. |

Yup, Delores' fault....too bad too, considering the first record is an all time fave. |

But her voice is the trademark for their music.
