Well approach it with tempered expectations then, I don't want to ruin the experience for you.



For me, I had little to no expectations for this - part of why it blew me away.

This is like a slowed down, accent-curbed, melody enhanced version of FR.

If you liked that, check out my blog post for tracks of the week. 'A Good Way to Grow Old' is my song of the year so far, although most others seem to think it's just good - nothing extraordinary.

Between this album (probably "of the year" for me) and the Antlers' "Familiars," 2014 has been a very

good year for me.



And oh yes: "A Good Reason to Grow Old" would easily find itself in the list "Scott Hutchison's Ten

Best Songs" for me. He does the two extremes of hope and despair just so damn well.
