I would prefer something off Rites of Passage, Swamp Ophelia is decidedly not their best work.

Such a sloppy tune, with off key singing, bad recorder, tinkly keyboard parts that don't fit, ick. This is when I stopped listening to them after those 2 fine first records. I can't understand how this got to the final cut, it's so unprofessional and doesn't go into the Neil Young or Bob Dylan category of an inspired despite sloppy performance.

Maybe they'll kick the bucket in the middle of recording their next album? |

The Indigo Girls are like the Robert Jordan of progressive music. First "Wheel of Time" book I (drunkenly) read I thought, "Hey that's not bad." So I bought another. And another. And another. All the sudden I found myself at the ninth bloody novel and it finally occurred to me that somewhere along the line the series had turned to absolute crap. Maybe it was that way from the very beginning. Anyway, I fell for the same thing with the Indigo Girls. Their first album (really their second, but their first was kindof like that Robert Jordan book with Spring in the title. A prequel, but crap) inspired me to buy more and more. Finally at Swamp Ophelia I realized, this is navel-gazing at its worst!

Still, Indigo Girls always remind me of the Lost Coast, so I can't be too hard on them

For some reason, this sounds like a different version of this song. Maybe I just haven't heard it in a while.

You could not be more wrong about that.
Collectively that is...

Whatever happened to them? They used to be so good. I get the just got too common and their songs sounded the same.
