She sounds solid as a vocalist, but she's very much a Scientologist and was openly supporting Danny Masterson through his court case. Mixed feelings for sure.

Scientologist

"Fuck L. Ron Hubbard, and fuck all his clones."

That bullshit almost ruined The Mars Volta, too.

Bedlam in Goliath is an amazing album. Bought it back in highschool. The point and click game that came with the album was really fun. Now I'm gonna go listen to the discography, again.

Deloused in the Comatorium...flawless album.

Different band, but Relationship of Command is also a flawless album. He was frontman for two of the most important albums in the last 30 years.

You're vastly underselling ATDI here. All their albums were amazing. The Mars Volta also has an almost flawless discography.
