Album Rating: 4.5
What I love most about his music is watching it evolve the way it has, yet it's still consistent in quality over each release. This album is no exception, and nice review.

I saw one person rated this a 3 and I seriously thought it was Zebra, but it wasn't. ughhhh. I'll get this sometime soon.

"Boy With A Coin" is one of my favorite songs of all time now.
|
| |
Possibly his best album... Standout tracks are
Pagan Angel and a Borrowed Car
White Tooth
Carousel
House By The Sea
Innocent Bones
Resurrection Fern
Flightless Bird
I would put Boy with a Coin but it's kind of been overplayed for me.

he changed his sound a good bit on this album...he went all progressive-folk.
it's good though, anybody else hear the Reggae vibes on, "Wolves"? took me by surprise. Countryfied-folk-reggae...what a great fucking idea

Yeah, I noticed that too... sounds like he's throwing in some dub elements into that song. genius idea.

i'd give this album a 4 simply for flightless bird american mouth, but the whole album is truly worth the praise. For a start, it's truly a progression from Iron And Wine's previous releases. Although it shares the same intimate-hushed-right-in-your-ear-boardering-on-the-creepy-voice it represents a leap for sam into more melodic song writing. Horray, decent hooks! This album kicks ass. Only one question remains, why is it under rock?

A friend lent me two albums. Not my usual thing whatsoever, but it's pretty amazing. I'm gonna hunt this down when I find a spare moment.

This album gets significantly better each time I listen to it. It's becoming one of my favorites. Woman King is pretty good also, I haven't heard any of his other stuff.

I hate the first three songs but this is ok.
|
| |
He did a cover of The Postal Service's "Such Great Heights" and its a lot better.
i will get this album after today
|
| |
See, I think that cover is pretty bad and I also was never impressed by his earlier work, but this album is truly fantastic. One of the best of 07 for sure.

I liked the album, but does anyone else think Beam looks a lot like Charles Manson or am I alone with that assumption???
