in all fairness, the record i previously posted was a compilation of old material, so my analysis is somewhat anachronistic.

this is a newer recording and is indeed a lot more carefully developed, almost entirely dropping the thrash aesthetic for a heavy influence from traditional celtic music. i don't want to walk down that path too far, as she doesn't stray particularly far from petrucci-via-abasi in the playing, but it has a kind of almost canterbury feel to it, at least. she's also pulling in a lot of vocal jazz, in the style of something like billie holliday.

i still think she needs to slow down and feel the instrument a little more often, that is, it still doesn't quite do it for me, but it's certainly an evolution in her style, and reason to suggest checking out what she's up to in the future.
