According to the provided review, Geike Arnaert was the lead singer of Hooverphonic and featured on albums including Blue Wonder Power Milk, Magnificent Tree, Hooverphonic Present Jackie Cane, No More Sweet Music and The President Of The LSD Golf Club. The review states she left the band after artistic disagreements (an implied undercurrent of sexism is mentioned) and released the solo album For the Beauty Of Confusion, described as electronic, trip-hop-tinged, introspective and showcasing her voice.

The single review praises Geike's solo debut For the Beauty Of Confusion as a confident, electronic-leaning trip-hop record that showcases her voice and songwriting. It frames her departure from Hooverphonic as driven by artistic disagreement (and an implied undercurrent of sexism) and presents the album as superior to the band's later output. Highlights include ballads such as "Night Time Round Here" and tracks like "Strange Disorder" and "Smile."

For:Fans of Hooverphonic, trip-hop and electronic pop; listeners of introspective ballads and orchestral-tinged pop.

 Geike Arnaert was THE singer of Hooverphonic, with her they grew up, they began to shape a personal style with "Blue Wonder Power Milk", then came "Magnificent Tree", "Hooverphonic Present Jackie Cane" and "No More Sweet Music": a star was born, a group capable of offering refined, intense, intelligent, and never banal pop, wonderful songs, suggestive atmospheres, and melodies worthy of an anthology.
