Ups and downs
Running up and down hills can make your legs tire real fast. There is no doubt that water will help this. So you drink until you feel like you might get sick, like on an airplane when it aborts a landing.As you jog by images of your forgotten past and piles of garbage, you cannot remember what...

Some People Will Never Get It
A lot of people hate Bob Dylan's voice too, but in so doing, they miss one of the greatest artists of the rock era. Am I comparing Mangum to Dylan? Hell yes I am.For those who don't get it, just move on to something more accessible to you. But for those who understand, this is one of the best...

One of my favorite albums of all time
The lyrics are poignant, the meaning behind them uplifting, the instrumentation frantic and the vocals strained and real. Some people seem to get caught up on the lead singer's voice; so he's not Paul McCartney, but I don't have a problem with it. CSNY didn't want to let Neil Young sing at...

Magnum's opus
A quintessential lo-fi masterwork of acoustic power and unrestrained vocal, this highly influential album helped pave the way for the broken-boy aesthetics of Bright Eyes and literate ballads of Decemberists to be the prominent independent music it is today. Sure, some of the production should...

A Classic of the Elephant 6 Collective
As far as lo-fi goes, this took the sub-genre in a whole new direction. Not for everyone, and you'll be hard-pressed to find hit single potential in any of these early 90's noise pop-rock confections, but the lyrics are strong, with a strong Anne Frank theme throughout. If you enjoy this kind of...

Thank you, Mr. Mangum
By the time I was appreciating music as a young man stumbling onto records, one group I would grow to love was already over - and I was crushed to learn online that there would probably never be a chance for me to see the group perform the songs live. I remember fervently trying to make up for...

10 years and still incredible
I knew there would be an ocean of reviews for this, and I probably cannot add anything that has not already been said. But I love this album so much, and find so it moving, that on the 10th anniversary of my wife buying and it and playing it for the two of us for the first time, I simply have to...

Whoooaaa!
Hey World, Guess I'm the minority here, possibly out of my element? Just cant stand his over pushed voice and the repetative strums. Lastly, and most important his sick demented lyrics about little boys! Who would back this album This songwritter is truly a sick man who needs help. Shame on...

The vocals.... oh, those vocals
This review is really just repeating what others have already said... but I felt it was good to reiterate on the flaws of this album.I wanted to give three stars but the vocals just bring this album waaayyyyy down and mess it all up. On one side, this is a VERY good album. I love the acoustic...
