Occasionally we like to pick an offbeat song or artist, acknowledging that it won't fit everyone's musical tastes. Zola Jesus, the stage name of 22 year old Nika Roza Danilova, has created a buzz with her vivid vocals and instrumentals, creating a sound that's been described as industrial/electronic/classical/goth. She also hails from one of our favorite cities, Madison, Wisconsin, and was a student at the UW there as late as 2009. She's currently on U.S. and European tour promoting her latest album "Conatus," from which this song is taken.
