I didn't think I would like this album, but I love it. I sure would love to go to Bonnaroo.

I love these guys!! cannot wait until Spring 2011 when they play at the North Carolina Azalea Festival in my adopted hometown. I never knew they used to perform a lot around here before they were "discovered". it's nice to see a band remember its roots. |

Al Yankovic switching tunes a whole lot of times without breaking stride is kinda neat, but hearing the Avett Brothers break into punk without blinking is way cooler.

After a month of listening, I think this may be the best song on the album.

8 —> 9. Lyrics hit so close to home, presentation is melancholy yet hopeful. Wonderful.

I like this band but not their new stuff. I think their early raw stuff was so much better.

Yeah, that's the first thing I thought. These are some of the best lyrics I've heard/read in a long time. Directly to the point, yet they lead to other places too. |

Well said. I'm not yet hearing anything new, different, better or smarter than the other bands and musicians I am already familiar with in this genre. I'll get a chance to figure it out, as this band seems to be getting a large share of airtime.

This album (from the few songs I've heard so far).... SO DIFFERENT from their other stuff...  I think it's great and definitely more polished than earlier... but I'm more partial to the less polished earlier sound. I think they are growing into something here... not quite there yet but getting there for sure. Looking forward to watching/hearing them continue to evolve... |
