It was a lame display that soured me towards a talented musician. To his credit though, it surely did not help that they were following Band of Horses, who rocked.

I think you need a few more albums.

OH! HIS VOICE!! Sounds like he pours maple syrup into his mouth before he sings, then practically whispers. -MUTE- Be back in a few minutes

Seems like that man is reading a poem, instead of singing. Looks nice.

I heard "An Angry Blade" earlier, and I was completely caught off guard at how much I liked it. I also really like Colexico and Iron & Wine's Red Dust.

I was going to post that I've heard this song too many times... apparently many of us feel this way.

Before the lyrics come in, it sounds a bit like Johnny Cash's take on Personal Jesus

I find this haunting, ethereal and archetypal; big words to be sure, but that's my impression - so there!

How can you tell? All sounds the same.
You won't get much of an argument from this quarter on that -- considering, for example, the generally low vigor of everything I've heard by him and all his breathy whispering and gasping while "singing." But this one's got a catchy tune.

And I'm warming to the collaborations with Calexico.
