Controversy?
Zola Jesus
Valusia
The Golden Filter
Voluspa
The Golden Filter press photo
Coincidence or copycat? The Golden Filter seems to think the latter since they’ve posted the Zola Jesus’ cover on their blog directly below this press photo with the comment – “Voluspa. Valusia? 2 letters and 2 months apart. ????“
We’ve had two comments reflecting the same opinion on my Zola Jesus Valusia post. I can’t imagine what possible benefit Zola Jesus would have in purposefully naming her forthcoming EP after The Golden Filter’s debut LP (to trick Googleing mis-spellers?) and she doesn’t strike me as someone short on her own ideas.
But I have to admit, those titles use a lot of the same letters. Thoughts?

Interesting: I know Stephen and Penelope from The Golden Filter.
I think Zola Jesus is fucking around. With everyone.

They (The Golden Filter) have a new blog post that includes a link to the definition of plagiarism.
This is turning turgid! Or is that turbid? Damn letters…
