I literally was blown away...it *was* scary! I thought the album was fantastic....really emotionally packed...but for some odd reason I can't recall the name "...Devil..." I loved "Double-Barrel Prayer" neat song! I definitely have to agree with the rest of you....if you want to listen to something wild try Diamonda Galas..... As for Happy....after listening to _Warpaint_ for 4 days non-stop....I have come back to earth in a manner of speaking...she is better than ever!! I played most of the album on my last radio show and asked anyone who was listening to call in....Received about 3-4 phone calls (this is a lot for one night) and all gave extremely high reviews. One guy who said he mostly liked alternative punk, new-wave thrash loved it.....he was amazed cause he doesnt normally get into the more mellow stuff... anyway enuf waxing off....there is a new album out, however, by The Children that is quite excellent....anyone know anything more about this band???
