What do people think of Nicolette's stuff? I've only heard 'No Government', but I noticed that having left Massive Attack she seems to have got in with Plaid. I find her vocals kinda grating and thought the actual music was pretty murky and/or harsh. Probably my favourite track on the single is the B-side, 'You Are Heaven Sent', which is produced by Felix but actually quite my scene for all that! I still remember Felix as a cheesy house merchant, but this track is really jazzy in quite a blatantly electronic way. Basically I don't like 'No Government' nearly so much as other Plaid-related stuff I've heard (particularly that UNKLE remix which reminds me of BDP's 'Tahr') and I'm curious as to what her other stuff's like. I think she has at least one other single out, and I understant Plaid produced the bulk of that one too.
