I don't see the level of emotion dropping between them, just an increase in sophistication - including emotional sophistication.



For me his writing is light years ahead on Either/Or

This album is a bit stroppier (Christian Brothers, Southern Belle)

nope the writing was best on here agree to disagree



lyrically, sonically, emotionally, this is his peak to me. my favorite melodies, favorite chord progressions, he just nailed a bare bones depressive folk record to a t here.



xo is def better than either/or too. either/or is great but always found it vastly overrated

For me I feel this album often ventures into plain pretty ditty territory (Clementine, Roses, Single File) musically while the lyrics are his most transparently depressive a lot of the time - but these sort of things are where personal taste comes into it massively, they're not criticisms and this is a great album.
