Iron and Wine

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

Anyone listen to these guys? I 'purchased' a copy of "our endless numbered days" a few weeks ago and have since tried to 'purchase' as much of their material as I can.. there seems to be alot of it.
I've been listening to woman king on almost constant repeat for the past day or two now, I love this band so much. So god damn much.

if you haven't heard of them, go and 'purchase' a cd .. they're well worth the 'money'

Second that, Sam Beam's a genius, lovely voice. I hear he's just completed a mini LP with Calexico which should be interesting.
The Creak Drank the Cradle is an excellent album too, I'd recommend 'buying' it.

Iron and Wine are amazing, i've loved thier stuff for ages now and woman king is one of the best EP's i've ever heard.
i'm just really sorry i missed him when he played Whelans last year, was apparently a great gig.

Unbelievable, have loved his music for so long (from the second I heard sea and the rhythm)

He even looks cool, I mean with a beard like that!

Ya i recommend anyone who has an interest in the lighter side of acoustice, check this guy out...

iron & wine..

seeing as how I don't feel like starting another thread

how's everyone feel about Explosions in the sky? There's a band with... music.

Great music too. The kind of music that doesn't even need vocals. It doesn't even *want* them.

I quite like Iron & Wine... very nice music, especially with the load of tosh ive been 'purchasing' lately, twas a nice change. Ill look up 'Explosions In The Sky'... sounds vaguely familiar.

Yup... and Don Caballero, Silver Mt. Zion (duh), GY!BE (mega-duh), 'Up-C Down-C Left-C Right-C ABC + Start' yada yada. More electronic but kinda in the same vein... 65daysofstatic, M83. All yummy.

Mordeth, I know a place where one can 'purchase' Iron & Wine's whole back-catalogue. Hit me up on IRC or something.

Explosions are fantastic... 'picked' up a lot of their stuff and spent hours listening to it, must get try out those other bands mentioned too... im on a buzz.
