Oh. I've given this one a spin recently. I'm especially digging the first track.

yup,

Not quite a 4.5 for me but I don't think all of the lyrics come off quite as clever as they think they do and his voice can get annoying but overall a nice package (hence my 4).

It didn't hurt that I saw them in Minneapolis, at 1st Ave (where Purple Rain was filmed), it being their hometown and all, so they really put on a show.

The last bit of "First Night," where the somber piano gives way to a mini explosion of energy, kills me every time. Cinematic, almost.

I might have been a bit unfair in my previous rating. After giving this another chance though, the fact remains that it does absolutely nothing for me.



For some reason modern albums that harken back to an 'Americana' type of sound really rub me the wrong way.

Can't love everything, though you seem to Hans. You should do a least favorite albums list that would be interesting.

yeah Explode, I like a shit load of different types of music. Really the only kinds I dont like are black metal, , death metal, Animal Collective, grindcore, and crust punk. Pretty much everythign else I can jive with in some sort of way.

I actually like De-loused but can't really stand any of their other stuff. I think I gave De-loused a 4.5 and Frances a 2.

The only way I could see someone not liking this is if they hated fun.



So Porch would not like it.
