The signposts on Zola Jesus' debut full-length The Spoils (Sacred Bones, 2009) are familiar to the Wire/Signal to Noise crowd: Suicide distoro-drone, overdriven Prurient keybs, haunted Throbbing Gristle clatter. The wild card in this Madison, Wisconsin project's industrial-goth deck is Nika Roza Danilova's startling operatic quaver — think Siouxsie Sioux's banshee siren plus pagan incantation. Between The Spoils, her smattering of '09 EPs, and her work with Former Ghosts (Jamie Stewart of Xiu Xiu, Freddy Ruppert of This Song Is a Mess But So Am I), Roza is a welcome respite to MOR indie frontwomen. Not songbird and not chanteuse, her pipes are all high-stakes emotional warfare.
