Or this or this or this :P

Did you get 'Around the Well'?

jefreywithonef · 01-08-2009 1:07pm

I've still yet to get any proper Iron & Wine albums (no money + no broadband

). Only have some radio recordings called Morning Becomes Eclectic and a performance with Calexico entitled All Songs Considered. Which album do you recommend starting off with?

almostnever · 01-08-2009 1:17pm

Anything by The Smiths or Joy Division really.
The Cure can be a bit angsty too,at times :P

I've only got two myself - The Sheperd's Dog (2007, I think) and the new one, Around the Well, which is a double album of B-sides, demos, covers, rarities, etc. Gorgeous stuff. This being my personal favourite at the moment. The Trapeze Swinger is the closer on Disc 2.

I don't have the earlier albums but from what I've read The Sheperd's Dog is the most critically acclaimed. Personally I prefer Around the Well, even though it's not an album really.

You've caught me at a bad time, I'm in the midst of an Iron&Wine fixation for the past week or two...

I'll probably start off with The Sheperd's Dog, then move onto the others. Might be waiting for a while though.

Heard "The Golden Rule" yet?

Brilliant song, didnt think Mountains was great either tbh.

New Bloody Beetroots album is pretty varied, some very good tracks, some crap.

They're absolutely brilliant live, I'd say live mixes by them are damn good.

Hey, angsty teens - get this in you.

That's real fúcking music right there.

That is without a doubt one of the greatest videos ever.

They're my favourite band, but really, what a god-awful video. So angsty. Where's all the naked party teenagers?

Fixed.

the creek drank the cradle.

Brilliant album, very uplifting in a strangely depressive way. listen if you can or at least youtube southern anthem and bird stealing bread

Cheesy **** I know, but my God do I love it.

Love this woman (Florence and the Machine). Couldn't find any non-live video. No worries, she's as good live. Rare these days.

Evacuate by the Boxer Rebellion is sooo good.

My favourite solo evar.

jefreywithonef · 04-08-2009 4:36pm

Vitalogy was one of the first cds I ever bought. Haven't listened to it in yonks though but it's probably my favourite PJ album (Better Man, Nothingman, Immortality Last Exit... sooo many class songs).

kev_s88 · 04-08-2009 4:45pm

2 songs that are on my mind lately and that ive been listening to non-stop are "If You're Not The One" by Daniel Bedingfield, and "Black" by Pearl Jam... im goin through a weird phase lol

Snap, snap, snap. I actually remember the day I began buying CDs in earnest -it was in Leicester - and it involved Vitalogy. Although come to think of it, I think Yield will always be my favourite PJ album.

jefreywithonef · 05-08-2009 12:25pm

Yield is fairly great too (All Those Yesterdays, Brain of J, Do The Evolution are among the band's best) although there are a couple of songs I don't like that much. Think you've inspired me to stick it and Vitalogy on!

herisson · 05-08-2009 2:17pm

ive been listening to Zombie by The Cranberries alot recently and same goes for Nirvana HeartShaped Box

JSK 252 · 06-08-2009 4:07pm

At this moment I am listening to the Coors Light Ad song. Los Campesinos YOU! ME! DANCING!

Shacklebolt · 06-08-2009 4:22pm

This was on the radio when I was sitting in the car earlier.... Turned it up to the max and remembered first hearing that album

I liked that song before it was cool. :P

/pretentious snob.

It's still awesome though. That said, I am slightly annoyed they cut it up for the ad.

WE DON'T LIKE BECKY ANYMORE! I love that song.

Such a good song

ya-ba-da-ba-doo · 08-08-2009 1:04am

My favorite at the moment would have to be 'soft' by kings of leon. Its an old one of theirs but i only discovered it recently! Another amazing song is 'walcott' by vampire weekend and noah and the whales new one.... Something to do with an orchastra. :-)

A Neurotic · 08-08-2009 4:29am

The Cure's "Disintegration" is rapidly becoming one of my favourite albums.
