Anybody else into her solo stuff.

I had the pleasure of seeing her live in birmingham last night and she was seriously good (along with still being VERY fit!!) ;)

Not heard the solo stuff, and I thought the latter Catatonia albums were a bit naff, but the first one, Way Beyond Blue, is an unsung classic, in my book. Some really beautiful, haunting tracks on there.

Each to their own, but I never found her even remotely fit…I always thought she looked (and sounded) well rough :)

Dennis,

Her solo stuff is very much like the first cat album, sort of electric folk.

Mr SD, your mad!! She is a very fine looking woman with the voice of an angel :D

:eek: Are we talking about the same Cerys Matthews? The one that looks like a builder and sounds like a raspy old welsh dog? Jesus christ mate, i’ve seen better 4 legged looking things stood in fields eating grass!

And don’t even start me on the music! :D

She looks like a woman you’d see pushing a pram around a council estate in Swansea…and sounds like she smokes three packets of Lambert & Butler a day ;)

That photo’s about the size of a postage stamp, so it’s impossible to say ;)

Admit defeat mate…I’m not saying she’s the ugliest woman on the planet, but she certainly ain’t a stunner:

Mate, if you’re gonna argue the point at LEAST get a photo that doesn’t make my eyes bleed. ;)

That’s sort of what I thought…Catatonia were shite, saw them at some festival and they were so dull.

I haven’t hear her solo stuff so she could surprise me.

She’s certainly got a touch of the uglies, but then again she also has a certain something too…

Could maybe be filed in my “Ugly women I can’t help but fancy” section…

Hmmm

I think there should be more mention of her music in this thread. I mean, when we slag the fuck out of Lars Ulricg, we aren’t all going: “God, his drumming is rubbish but FUCK he looks like the back end of a bus, I have shagged prettier farmyard animals..” Do we..?

I mean, I don’t shag animals, btw, that was just a …oh fergeddit…

Yeah Dennis is right, suppose its back to the music.

I agree the last Catatonia album was incredibly dull, but her solo stuff is ALOT different.

Very country/folk influenced, which lends very well to her voice which i agree is a bit like marmite (either love it or hate it)

Ha as for Ulrich, i think he looks like something out of Lord of the rings, and drums like the one in the Corrs. Do i win an award now?!?! :D
