Zola Jesus - Stridulum II

Here's one of the albums that made my best of 2010 list and was probably the most played LP on that list too. It's basically the Stridulum Ep with three extra songs added to expand it into a full length. This girl has an amazing classically trained voice and sounds a bit like a modern Siouxsie Sioux. I'd describe Zola Jesus as gothic noise pop with this release leaning more towards the pop side of things than her earlier releases. You can get this on white vinyl from Souterrain Transmissions.
