ms. calvi's been generating some heat across the pond through most of 2011. throaty, lustful, and proficiently wields an axe to boot (though those skills aren't so much on display in this video). compared favourably to siouxsie and PJ harvey, here she is on later... getting a good amount of sound out of three people.

Loading... So it turns out her brother, Matt, was the one committed to being one of the worst live performers of all time. Good to know.

The fairer part of the Fiery Furnaces, live in Toronto, 2011. Go buy her new solo album.

I haven't done much breaking up lately but my favorite break up album of all time is Long Gone Before Daylight from the Cardigans.
