I'm close to that sentiment myself but I do love Crane Wife...

The Crane Wife is definitely great too (I have it rated a 4), but I prefer the simple yet exuberant atmosphere of this album, it actually clicked with me after only one listen.

Agreed. This is a pretty good album on which they explore their country side more than anything else.

I think this has more good songs than crane wife but I think crane wife has more great songs. Does that make sense?

Yeah I think I know what you mean, you're saying the majority of this album is solid with a few amazing songs, while The Crane Wife has mostly amazing songs with some filler and simply solid tracks thrown in?

Irving because hazards was released in 2009 and had twisted branches on its album art pretty simple really.

They are all pretty good but I would suggest this, Crane Wife or Picaresque for starters.
