5.0 out of 5 stars Not so subtle sister, December 28, 2004

I've had the pleasure of hearing Alix perform several times. In addition, I've had a chance to talk with her. This woman stands fully behind what she says. There's no glamour or glitz; what you see and hear is what you get. She truly lives to speak about what she experiences and to empower women. This album is incredibly raw and overflowing with the truth of what is going on in this world. It also runs the gamut of political commentary (like the title track "Independence Meal") and personal reflection ("8 x 10"). Alix's voice is an instrument, rocking the listener with her own syncopated rhythm. Seeing her perform is the only thing better than listening to this album!

To say this woman has a way with words is a serious understatement. She can not only make you feel what she is saying, she can take you there, put you right in the middle of it. This is not happy little songs to get you through your life, this is the truth,with nothing held back. Alix is nothing less than extraordinary.

Alix Olson has created a spoken word album that one is able to groove to at the same time! Her poetry is thought provoking. It has the ability to make you laugh, cry, and want to change the world in the next minute. Congrats on an album that everyone who considers themselves human should hear.
