Krista seems like a nice person, she is Canadian and has great paper clips in her promo package. That should go a long way in my books.
Okay, here’s a story to ponder. I know a person who has no sense of taste. It is actually referred to medically as “Ageusia”. Now here is my thought. Let’s say I was a good cook and could whip up a tasty bowl of soup on a cold Canadian winter. People would travel as far away as Moncton, New Brunswick to try my world-renowned soup. Now, lets say I had limited soup left and my friend with “Ageusia” wanted to come over to try some. In my mind this bowl of soup would be wasted on this dear friend. Ingeniously I decide to throw a few carrots, chicken and noodles into a bowl of dishwater. Sounds cruel…oh well life is tough. Turns out the friend loves it, and I open up a business for sufferers of “Ageusia” and make millions.
My point is somewhat blurred in this culinary tale but I will decipher some of the code. Krista D has been declared “punk” or “new wave”. For starters Punk was dangerous. Krista D is not. New Wave was a response from the record industry to water down Punk and make it mass marketable. Krista D could probably be mass marketed.
She has the voice and the band to back her up. Blue hair does not equal punk. Self-exploration, pushing limits both musically and vocally and dropping the formula will have Krista on a path to be reckoned with.
Oh, back to the soup. Yeah, don’t feed us something described as chicken soup. Give us the real thing Krista!
PS. this is not a bad review. I would add it to your good or so-so reviews.
