Dec 18, 2011Never really listened to POE's prior, but this album is a work of art. I am quite impressed, glad I checked it out. Sounds a bit trip-hoppy, and that's a good thing for me.

EdK.Mar 29, 2008I've listened to this album at least 100 time since it came out in 2000. It never grows old and I discover something new almost every time I hear it.

MarkGAug 8, 2006This album could be put in the same class as Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon." Anyone who professes to not like it undoubtedly doesn't understand and never gave it a full listen. This is the first POE that I ever heard, and I became an instant fan! There is not a bad song on this disc.

MissyHSep 3, 2005Deep, unnerving, sneaks up on you at times, and love the lyrics. She says things that every woman's "daddy's little girl" inside wants to say. Shame really that Rolling Stone missed the mark on their review, seems that the rolling has stopped at the bank. Im a total fan and one of a growing number.

ColeKMay 31, 2005I absolutly love this album,it's completely different than any other of this genre, if you can give it a genre, it's beautifully haunting while not pretencious,a beautiful masterpiece of lyrical and musical artwork.

MichelleS.Dec 30, 2004This is one of my favorite albums of all time. I always discover something new when I listen to it, and if you take the time to learn the story behind "Haunted," you appreciate its subtleties even more.

LissaDJun 14, 2004This CD is the best ever. Shes original and doesn't follow the path of every other artist. She unique and for that she should be recognized.

AbeDFeb 10, 2004Haunted ranks as one of my all-time favorite albums. I enjoy the title track in particular, but there isn't a clunker in the mix.

HollySNov 18, 2003Haunted is all about intense beat! Actually, truth be known, after having my second son, and quite a bad case of post-partum depression, this was the album that changed my outlook and my body. (I work out to this album). I have a deep respect for Poe, and get something more out of the album every time I listen to it.

Awards & Rankings

Lyrically, Haunted progresses from timid to defiant, and ultimately to triumphant. Musically, Poe drifts confidently from trippy beats and spacy sounds to straight ahead rock and mellow, melancholic numbers, though not always in such a way as to strictly parallel the dramatic flow of the album's lyrics. All that means, though, is that this is a dynamic collection of songs and not merely the kind of high-minded rock opera that quickly goes from interesting novelty to pretentious joke. Ignore everything but what comes out of the speakers, and you've got a pop treasure that is as innovative and insightful as it is immediate and unforced.
-
Sadly, Poe's work might not be welcomed in the mainstream, which is disappointing because her original compositions have the makings for a new music revolution alongside the likes of Radiohead's Kid A. Haunted is in its own class of twisted intelligence and beauty.

Q MagazineThe mood is too heavy for far too long, but some good songs and more cohesive, melodic structures augur well for this damaged daughter's future. [Sep 2001, p.115]
