There's a lot of argument on this video about dynamics, and the fact that her songs are simple. Take St. Vincent for example. St. Vincent's music has similar qualities, and she's one of the most incredible songwriters out there. What Angel has created, is something incredibly heart wrenching, and I love her story telling. It's nice to step back from all the hooplah of distortion and guitar pedals, and all that jazz. For me It's about the songwriting , music has to tell a story. Everything else is secondary. What Angel Olsen does, is unique, and her guitar work isn't like jack white or anything, but the fact that her music is raw , is why I like it. It's not over dressed to be something else. it's a take it or leave it sort of thing.

Since when does “technically superior” translate to a better listening experience? I know plenty of guitarists who can fly across the fretboard-that doesn't mean I can listen to them run scales for more than a few minutes. Despite the simple arrangements, this young lady's performance is very well done. It's definitely a good listening experience.

Because many people have an inclination toward sharing commonalities, it's what bonds us as social creatures, and doing it thru music that resonates with you and reminds you of songs/artists of your youth makes you feel good, helps remember good times. People always point out similarities or comparisons wether it be stylistically, harmonically, or acknowledging a physicality that they recognize. Human beings are fond of ubiquitous and universal themes as they help the aforementioned bond between us strengthen because of their prevalence. Or sometimes people like for other people to remind them of other people, and when other people agree, they feel like they pointed out something astute and that gives them a warm fuzzy feeling.

Jesus, her guitar technique is entirely irrelevant. Her voice is absolutely chock full of technique that most singers don't and couldn't achieve in a lifetime of desperate grasping. Her phrasing, her texturing, and her Belief in every micro-unit of the expressive powers of her voice is remarkable. Her lyrics are very good, but it is her voice that makes them bleed and gush. Her's is the sound of cut flowers bending in deathly praise to time itself. So go eat your guitar technique and shit it out again in your golden bowl, you golden boys, but enjoy doing so alone for the rest of your life: whoever wishes to comment on her guitar technique.

It's so beautiful to see it happening, it feels like watching magic.

It all just falls apart But when I look into your eyes It pieces up my heart If I only had an answer To put it all to bed I wish sometimes I could take back Every word I've said I walk back in the night alone Got caught up in my song Forgot where I was sleeping None of the lights were on I heard my mother thinking me right back into my birth I laughed so loud inside myself it all began to hurt So I turned on a picture show I disappeared the lines As memories came flooding in The tears blew out my eyes I see an elevator A moment I am above I look for you or someone Who can still remind me of The tight grip and the sun lick And the calm way of all things summer When it's all here And it's all new And you're not hungover Fierce and light and young Fierce and light and young When you don't know that you're wrong Or just how wrong you are My feet are always heavy As I inch toward the door I thought we'd leave this for ourselves a hundred times before But I guess we're always leaving even when we look the same And it eases me somehow to know that even this will change If you've still got some light in you then go before it's gone Burn your fire for no witness it's the only way it's done Fierce and light and young Fierce and light and young Hit the ground and run Hit the ground and run

She reminds me of Roy Orbison in so many ways, but as though he were still alive making new material for me to cry my eyes out over. He was such a gift not just in his performance, but his writing.

I don't listen to Bombay Bicycle Club as much as I used to, but she sounds exactly how the lead singer from Bombay sang on "I Had the Blues But I Shook Them Loose". Anyone else agree, or is it only me, hahaha?

I think a lot lately about how parenting today seems to involve way too much getting into your kids' heads. They need to evolve their own reality, and putting yourself in there too much is just setting up some deep teenaged anxtie shit (if your child is lucky). This lyric expresses a parent's -- and particularly a mother's -- power over our awareness-being. It's deep enough in itself without reifying it with too much parenting psycho blah-blah.

"She's like a female /blank/" "She doesn't /have/ to be technically good on guitar" I think she's great on her own without comparison and as far as technique goes, she has a lot, not that it matters. There's no right or wrong way to play any instrument.
