Emily Haines be Googled

I was reading a review at Pitchfork on Broken Social Scene and Emily Haines was mentioned. Having no idea of who this woman is, I thought I'd look her up. Apparently everybody who writes about her art sees her talent along very similar lines. Check this out --
-->"Emily Haines' chameleon warble"
-->"Emily Haines' seething vocals"
-->"Emily Haines' melting alto"
-->"the soaring vocals of Emily Haines"
-->"the the luscious vocals of Emily Haines"
At least this guy managed to put more than two words between her name and the ensuing descriptors with "Emily Haines teases out all the suffocating peer-dependent loneliness of teenage-girlhood, capturing a kind of heartbreaking solipsistic neediness".
