Anyone heard this album?

I was not a fan of the early Iron and Wine - too simple, too melodic - but this album is pretty great.

He adds a lot of interesting instrumentation and uses crazy rhythms and song structure.

Really good stuff.<object height="344" width="425"></object><object height="344" width="425">

I like "each coming night" and "cinder and smoke"

they also wrote the original version of the postal service song :"such great heights"

Realing fucking hate Iron and Wine. But you used to have this opinion so maybe I will listen to this and see if my opinion changes
