You'll 5 a Lambchop, just a matter of which one/how many ;D
Maybe hold off on the 5 until you've tried 'I Hope You're Sitting Down' as it's a real grower and their most alt country. That could be your favourite. It's working its magic on me now.

This one is reeeally close to the 5 Doof, really it's only a question of whether "Flick" and "D Scott Parsely" hold it back too much.
I'll give Sitting Down a listen this weekend.

Album Rating: 5.0
Those are the two weakest here but they're not a problem in terms of flow and they don't harm the overall listening experience at all for me.
'Flick' in particular is actually still a nice enough soothing listen, if you listen to it in isolation it's pretty great, it's just nowhere near a standout.

Pretty much, even more gentle than most alt country, and with a slight lounge feel to things thanks to the piano

yeah I don't listen to this for musical grit, though Wagner's lyrics always have a little bite to them

Whoever this band's pianist is he's an absolute genius.
Really this is pretty far from the generic alt-country sound but it's not really Americana or folk either so alt-country is the best term to describe this. Plus you get Wagner's quirky vocals and lyrics which are pretty far from general country.

There are so many great little sonic touches in this thing, I'm in love.

'the album is imbued with a rich subtlety thanks in part to the inspired use of found-sounds and field recordings that are expertly deployed to colour around the edges of the sparse arrangements'
That's how I put it in tart speak

Album Rating: 5.0
The last four songs are a slightly weak finish but I believe the album does enough before then to warrant the 5

Intetesting, after 2 listens that is very similar to how I would rank things, not as sure about the track ratings though.
Soakt is amazing for sure.
What Was He Wearing is an atrocity.

Doof's lambchop ratings are exciting
