Books

Rage is meaningless unless you direct it towards something to gain power. At the end of it all, the one with the biggest ability to inflict violence is the most powerful.

For anyone who's lucky enough not to be familiar, so they get to experience it anew:

Neko Case - Things That Scare Me

Neko Case - Magpie to the Morning

Case / Lang / Veirs - Best Kept Secret

Edit: Holy shit. I missed: Case / Lang / Veirs - Down I-5. Some other quite good ones are "The Pharaohs," "Maybe Sparrow," "Atomic Number," "Red Tide," and "Teenage Feeling." And "Greens of June." Just listen to all of it, honestly.

Edit: Laura Veirs's solo stuff is also good beyond my ability to communicate via text. "July Flame" and "Rocks of Time" especially.

Edit: I also quite like this performance, for some reason: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uN_qtAm68y0
