From last.fm:

The illusive lyrics and raw emotion of Meredith Fierke, granddaughter of a nuclear physicist from Oppenheimer’s core, kicks the stool out from under the post-modern idea of a coalminer’s singer/songwriter. Fierke’s impressionistic songwriting dares the listener to make sense of the few shapes in dim twilight, calling up a mix of alternative, rock, and old-world murder ballads. Known for a powerful elegance both sonically austere and viscerally arresting, she mesmerizes audiences delivering a seductive vocal that often trends low, and from this darkness emerges a fiercely independent artist.
