I honestly haven't heard the album in it's entirety. I have listened to a handful (maybe 5 or 6) of individual songs from archives on KEXP, and not a single one of them did much for me. Not terrible, but nothing special. Why do you ax?
The same goes for Andrew Bird's new critically lauded album, which we do have a copy of. Thouugh I'm a big fan of a couple of his earlier albums, the new one hasn't really hit me in the gut yet.

Loathe as I am to admit it, I occasionally like the counter-culture voice you provide. I still hate you though.

Can anybody guess the two albums out of that list that I actually give the thumbs up to (I've heard at least a little bit of nearly all of them)? Sorry, no prizes involved. Maybe I could bring the winner back a rock or a chunk of dirt from Seattle.

I don't think he likes Stars. I remember him saying the girl was ugly and then the whole "I saw Stars so BSS sucks live" thing.
The thought of Rhett listening to Sigur Ros blows my world. Blows!

Stars is one of them. The girl is ugly, but she's a good singer. What I've heard of the second album didn't blow me away as much as the first, but has convinced me that I will pick up a used copy when I come across one.

I believe the current album is the third album they've released.
