634. Liz Phair - juvenilia


Liz is at her best when she's heard on headphones, playing to an audience of one. She herself has stated she suffers from serious stage fright, and it seems that the less 'showy' her songs are, the more interesting they are as well. This ep was released in 1995 and I'm not sure why or when I got it... but the songs here are not worth tracking down unless you are a hardcore fan of hers... with that said, I like the disc enough to keep it but not enough to recommend it. Songs like "Jealousy", "Animal Girl" and "Batmobile" are classic Phair songs in that they carry her signature candor and don't take themselves too seriously.
