Alright kids, I need your input on a talent I've come across named Diamanda Galas. I was introduced to this through a track on a CD by Recoil entitled "Liquid." I really like her style - I've checked out her website to get some information on her. Very unique to say the least. Before I plunk down some very hard earned American $, I'd like to see if anyone has any information on this artist, recommendations on her better works, etc. Any info or suggestions anyone has would be appreciated!
- Rob

Holy shit that's a great quote you have written down by Diamanda! I remember reading that some time ago and really thinking about it. That's not why I do what I do, but it certainly is for some people. So, which works do you recommend I start with? Have you read any of her written works? Thanks for the input....
