Shuffle Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 I like it, I don't wanna say more than that after just two listens. Quote
KBear Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 This is a band I've been meaning to check out, and a free stream might be as good an opportunity as any. How representative is this album of all their work? Is this a good place to start? Quote

Is this a good place to start?I think this album's awesome, but you will also want to check out A.M., Being There, and Summerteeth.Summerteeth is my personal favorite. Quote
Shuffle Posted May 15, 2009 Posted May 15, 2009 It all depends on what you're looking for... Check some reviews of the albums first and depending on what sounds the most like your thing, I'd pick either Being There, Summerteeth or Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. My personal favourite is Being There with Summerteeth as number two, and I'm not too fond of YHF (it's good, just not that good) but it's widely claimed to be their best. All three are quite different so I'd recommend that you read up on the albums before choosing.. Or you could just listen to the stream since it's easily available and free. Quote

Who says Yankee Hotel Foxtrot is their best?I don't know anyone who thinks that.Certainly not me, but it is considered among critics, to be their best.I think it's terrible with a capital "T." The only song I like off that album is "Heavy Metal Drummer." Quote

Imo jeff tweedy is one of the most overated artists of the decade. I dont really get uncle tupelo either. Edited May 18, 2009 by Midnight Rambler Quote
