glow part 2 is good if overlong. I feel like if I really dug into it I'd love it more than I do.

i think pretty much every lo-fi album i've listened to and formed an opinion on always boils down to how much of a chance i've given it, actually. overlong doesn't really matter i guess, as with love tara and bee thousand if you've heard either. so maybe i just need to keep listening to the glow over.

is he your favourite lo-fi act after eric's trip?

lol yeah probably. his albums do take a little while to get into for some reason, or at least they did for me. glow part 2's probably his easiest to dig though.

I still don't listen to good music yet so I'll pick up The Glow pt.2, then move onto this. I think I have a Mount Eerie record somewhere on here, never really payed much attention to it. I'll listen to that now. Sweet review.

Oh yeah I know, but I'm still a dick for not picking some Elvrum up sooner considering the amount of praise he gets, and the fact he sounds perfectly suited to my tastes.

Is megaupload fucking up for anyone else lately? Every download page starts to load but never finishes.

lol^^

i think elvrum did hit his peak with the glow pt 2, but i didnt mean it to sound like he tapered off afterwards and started making crap, cause he definitely didnt. i know most of sputniks users know of that album more than this though, so i compared the two for that reason.
