Didn't find her vocals unconventional, maybe cause I never got to understand what is considered truly "conventional".

As for the other two, I pretty much agree with what you said in your description.
...they've got great videos all around by the by.
Really good write up from the beginning till the end. I somehow needed a beginner's guide to La Roux, and I think this journal entry has successfully introduced me to them. I'll maybe download the album later today, to enjoy in its fullest.

Yeah, true. What you said about the "La" part of their name makes sense. Feel a bit dumb for not realizing that.
About the bolded part...I think unconventional mighta been the wrong word now. I don't think it means what I think it means. I'm too lazy to look through a dictionary and find a better choice now though.
I am a little surprised you didn't mind her vocals off the bat. Usually that's the first thing people will talk about when she's brought up or this CD is put on, in my experience. That's cool though.
Hope you enjoy the rest if you do check it out.
