Rarely Heard: Kristeen Young - No Other God



I discovered New York-based singer/songwriter Kristeen Young via MySpace (when that place was still active) and was instantly intrigued reminding me a bit like a more agreesive Tori Amos (and on No Other God she sounds a bit like Kate Bush). Interestingly, like with me, she grew up in St. Louis, and one of her parents is German. Her album X is a concept album, 10 songs about the 10 Commandments, and none less than Palcebo's Brian Molko sings with her on the first song No Other God. She released her latest album, The Knife Shift, this year.
