=/ Yeah, I highly disagree with that.
Some of the greatest poets have some form of abstraction, Keats, Yeats, Longley to name a few.

The Cascades is pretty much the most breathtaking thing I have heard in a long time

Me too. It's far more interesting when I have to use my imagination to bring the whole story of a song
together and actually think about the terminology, phrasing and metaphors.

In fact; lyrical complexity should be applauded. It keeps the songs alive long after they've been
listened to. And then the music on this is so well layered too. I always find a slight distinction
popping up with every listen.

Yep. =)

The word I find to describe the album is 'mature'. I don't know why that is...that's just the word I come up with.

definitely gonna be in my top 5 albums this year

This definitely sounds more mature if you compare it to their debut yeah

This is good, but the charm wears off pretty fast. I don't even have the urge to put it on anymore these days.

I think Robin Pecknold said he wanted to go less 'indie rock' on this album and more of an actual folk
record. I think that's why there are less electric guitars on this and an overall softer sound.

I think this is going to be my number 1 this year sniper01. =) With Wild Beasts' Smother a close
second.

I listen to this once every day, at least. I love it.

wild beasts have too weird a vocalist for me. there have been tons of excellent releases but this is pretty damn fantastic.

I agree. Such a terrific album. I can't wait to hear them live, if I ever get to.

I had the chance to about a month ago, but tickets were $70 if you weren't monthly paying member of the private club it was at.......................

That stinks. So unfair too, that they charge more than other clubs.
