The beautiful songstress Feist -- who roomed with Peaches, worked with the Kings of Convenience, and supplied vocals for Broken Social Scene's "You Forgot It in People" -- steps out for her debut album, "Let It Die." Carefully pieced around Feist's seductive voice, the album forms the missing link between ye olde folk (storytelling), the Brill building era (the quest for the hook), doo-wop (melody and mood), and minimal modern pop arrangements. Francoise Hardy-style orchestral pop, hipster neuvo-disco, and lovely indie-folk is the order of the day.
