Kaki King makes me want to throw my guitar out the window

Kaki King makes some tasty, lush post-rock (ish!) music with her hands and her vocal cords. Plus, she's a huge lesbot, so there's no reason why you -- lover of queer music that you are -- shouldn't have at least 2006's Until We Felt Red in your collection.

King also puts on an incredible live show. See her if she comes within a hundred miles of your current location. I mean it. Here she is performing "Playing With Pink Noise" from Legs to Make Us Longer:

This is uncharacteristically chill for me. Next week: angry music! Or electronica! Or hip-hop!
