Moss Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I've had this thing for a few years, and it never really clicked with me. I guess I hadn't given it enough time. I love how easily Linkous can shift from upbeat, almost pop songs, to horribly depressing and slow, yet beautiful, songs. I did the same thing with this one. Bought it, was disappointed and put it away. Took it out a few years later and loved it. Maybe it was ahead of it's time or something. Link to post Share on other sites
Shakespeare In The Alley Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I did the same thing with this one. Bought it, was disappointed and put it away. Took it out a few years later and loved it. Maybe it was ahead of it's time or something.Yea, it took an especially long time to grow on me. I always thought there was something there that I wasn't getting, but after I heard the Dark Night Of The Soul album, I decided to give the regular Sparklehorse albums another shot. This one especially did not disappoint. The range of emotions on this thing is astounding. I think the "ahead of his time" tag might be applicable. Link to post Share on other sites
