Welsh Rich Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 I need to get hold of that Feist record... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 the new Feist is great, but i wish it had a bit more uptempo/fun stuff like the last one, as i get a bit tired by the end of it. but it is very very gorgeous stuff and definitely a better all around album.

myboyblue Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Bright Eyes - Cassadaga - so far so good with this one... side note - when grabbing the picture from AMG, they gave Wide Awake... only 2 stars. That is a bit surprising. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

solace Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 it's by Stephen Thomas Erlewine, who is a major toolshed you'd think Conor fucked his wife from that review Quote Link to post Share on other sites
timbits Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 yeah, i've seen some of his other reviews - but this one is pretty accurate as far as i'm concerned. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

myboyblue Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 yeah, i've seen some of his other reviews - but this one is pretty accurate as far as i'm concerned. I'll take your word for it. I tried reading it but after the first 2 paragraphs and hardly mentioning the album, I lost interest. I'm not sure how any critic would call that a 2 star album. The presence of Jim James and Emmylou Harris alone garners at least 3 stars, no? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
