what do you both think? i think it's wonderful. actually i'm going to listen to it again now.

I'm listening to it again. At first, I thought it was a retreat to Gallowsbird's Bark but now I realize this is Fiery Furnaces' actual stab at,... accessible music (shock and gasps). There's a different kind of depth in I'm Going Away. And it sounds like a beautiful child born from Gallowsbird's Bark and Bitter Tea. My admiration for this album is slowly blossoming.

 

Current rank: Blueberry Boat > EP >= Gallowsbird's Bark > I'm Going Away > Bitter Tea > Widow City > Rehearsing My Choir.

I heard a track from this on NPR and it sounded very interesting.

 

There 's a track on it that I just keep going back to. It's a kid's voice over be-bop, repeating 'It's like, It's like umm'. Really brings home the idea of using voices as rhythm. Interesting article from Carl Wilson (the 33 and 1/3 writer) about speech and song in discussion with Spearin:
