Red House Painters

[Luxor]

Man, I didn't expect to love this band this much. Generally this type of stuff bores the hell out of me.

I just got Songs For A Blue Guitar and it's awesome. I'm currently downloading Old Ramon

[asymm]

One of my favorite bands. Kozelek's haunting melodies can be quite powerful. This is a group that I used to try and push around here awhile ago with little luck. It's nice hearing of more folks giving them a chance. They make some amazing music.

I'd highly recommend Red House Painters I and Ocean Beach. Those two are my favorites. But somedays Down Colorful Hill is up there as well.

[Little Man being Erased]

After the incessant whoring of these guys (and Sun Kil Moon) by Nacho and asymm, in particular anyway, I felt I had no option but to at least check them out. I've really enjoyed both bands so far. Good one dudes.

[br3ad_man]

I seriously love what I have heard from Red House Painters. I've been planning to buy Red House Painters I for a while after Nacho reccomended it.

[elnicky]

Both them and Sun Kil Moon have some excellent music. My MP3 player is mostly dominated by them.

[Zmev]

Up with Red House Painters.

Down with Sun Kil Moon.

[asymm]

Down with Sun Kil Moon.
I'm hoping you've heard Ghosts of the Great Highway to make such a statement, eh? Too many folks have only heard the Modest Mouse covers (Tiny Cities) and jump to conclusions...

[Zmev]

Ive heard it.

[The Great Decay]

I liked Ghosts of the Great Highway and I also have and enjoy Songs for a Blue Guitar.

[Anxious]

Man they are so depressing,

And so good.

[Concubine]

They're good.

[The Great Decay]

Ghosts of the Great Highway and Red House Painters I are seriously important. To me, at least.

I haven't been able to find Red House Painters I on soulseek.

[Kayetan]

Sometimes Ghost of the Great Highway seems really depressong, but at other times, it's just good. I guess I should pick up Red House Painters I. I have two other albums by RHP that I enjoy quite thoroughly. Anyway, I saw this interview with Mark Kozelek recently. I'm honestly surprised he hasn't killed himself yet. He seems like the most depressed person ever. Regardless, I like his music.

[FA]

I love RHP.

[bleep_bloop]

great stuff

[Luxor]

Hm, sounds like I've got the wrong albums. I'll have to get Ghost Of The Great Highway

[dei]

I was going to say something bad about Red House Painters, but then I actually listened to them and they shut me up. Is dei going to change his ways? I hope so.

[Paranoidd]

Kozelek is such an insane songwriter, I cry with jealousy everytime I listen to them.

I'll never forget the first time I listened to Old Ramon and the nine minute opening love song about his cat. I knew right there that he ****ing rocked.

[Interstate]

I've got Red House Painters I which is awesome. I've heard some Sun Kil Moon stuff as well which I'm really growing to like.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

I've got Red House Painters I and it's growing on me.

[morrissey]

I've just started listening to them within the past couple months after hearing about them for years. Good stuff.
