General comments:
Lisa Papineau has a voice a little reminiscent of Alanis Morissette, but the backing sound is more electronic. Her voice has the same quirks though it's smoother and she doesn't yell as much. (sophiagurley@hotmail.com)

Comments:
A mix of heavy beats and lighter songs. Papineau's vocals are lovely. The sound is creative and the songwriting good, ranging from slightly rockier to ballad-like. Highly recommended for fans of electronic pop with an edge. (sophiagurley@hotmail.com)
