I'll agree with Liesel that "Haunted" is quite excellent.
Her brother also has a book, "House of Leaves", along
the same lines and I think she references it on the album.
I bought the album around this time last year after hearing
an interview with her on our own WOXY, but only
first started getting into it around the New Year driving
up to Petoskey, MI.
There's a fairly cool website -- http://www.p-o-e.com
and for the Ohioans/Cincinnatians among you, she will
be at Bogart's on Monday Nov, 12.
