Customer Reviews of This Album/CD |

 great album if you're in to this stuff

| There are quite a few bad reviews here and that's cool. I can definitely understand that this stuff isn't as amazing to some as it is to others. But, if you like Bright eyes and haven't heard this album yet I assure you that it's one of their best. First Day of My Life and Another Travellin' Song would definitely have to be my favorites. I would certainly recommend this album. |

| I absolutely adore this album, every song is lovely. Landlocked Blues is the reason I am a Bright Eyes fan. I used to forget whether or not the song existed, or if I dreamed something so amazing. We Are Nowhere And It's Now is a great song as well, very nice. Lua is so nice, very simple. First Day Of My Life is such a cute little song, I love it. Another favorite is Road to Joy, the last track. It is a great definitive end. I love the folky tone to this album. Go buy it, and for the opposite spectrum of mood and emotions, go buy Digital Ash in A Digital Urn. |

Just take some time and listen, chances are you'll keep listening for a very long time. People complain about his voice, but I don't understand why. His lyrics are unmatchably magnificent, and the nice acoustic sounds match very well. If you're looking for a good listen - buy this. If you like folk - buy this. If you're looking to get into Bright Eyes - this is the place to start.
This is the kind of music that your soul NEEDS to function! It's breathtaking! |

 Predictably good, Predictably not great

| I would hate to call what Oberst does shtick. He obviously has talent, and has obviously been refining his technique to allow a broader audience without compromising his sound...in fact, not compromising it enough. Let's not overstate his songwriting abilities- they are keenly aware of taking traditional roots-rock forms and injecting edgy minor progressions, hardly more. Good move on his part then, to provide counterpoint with more electronic-based dabblings the same time as this release. He still has a ways to go writing that masterpiece everyone suspects he is capable of, hinting with a few of his most solidly strummed songs yet. Yet the whole album suffers from typical embedded mediocrity inherent throughout much of his predictable techniques (perhaps many forget this with the powerful standout 1-2 closing shots, a technique used all too often for falsely fresh aftertastes of questionable wholes). |
