My thoughts on EE are that I don't think the characters are as "helpless" as the detractors say (they're entirely self-taught musicians, remarkably well-adjusted for having been raised the way they were, and escaped from two of their four abusive home situations with no outside help at all) and their backstory is so OTT it's ridiculous to take it even remotely seriously (c'mon, conjoined elephants?), but it could probably have been done better as an animated thing rather than the creepy dressup routine.

I am pretty into circus sideshow things, so were it not for her response, that probably would have been completely up my alley.

But...her response. Horrible.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, true. I'm inclined to see it as her being in need of some serious help, which I hope she gets.

If you like the theme but not the controversy, have you checked out Circus Contraption and/or Vermillion Lies? I'm totally addicted.

[sabotabby]

I have not, but I certainly will!

Any good?

One of AFP's songs recently spawned a good friendship and an entire AU ficverse for me via the Homestuck kinkmeme, so I have to admit I'm a bit biased in favour of her stuff. Doesn't mean I don't think what she does is stupid, but I'm less inclined to take it as malicious.

[sabotabby]

Pretty good!

Ultimately, I am pretty into Wagner and neo-folk and all sorts of great music made by awful people, so I'm able to still appreciate AFP even when she says and does shitty things. But the thing about a living artist with a big online footprint is that the line between art and personality becomes much more blurred than it has been in the past, and that's a mixed blessing. On the one hand, I like her music and I'd prefer not to know what she's like as a person. On the other hand, her close online relationship with fans offers opportunities for discussion and debate that wouldn't exist otherwise.

all sorts of great music made by awful people

Like, say, Boyd Rice/NON and Death In June?

[sabotabby]

Yep, exactly.
