i dont know if this album has been brought up or discussed on here, but it should be…the best new band out of the great white north.

i'm finding much delight in the new Dinosaur Jr. record.

with the exception of track 4 which is kind of a stinker.

Review by Jo-Ann Greene (AMG)
Americana with attitude is the best way to describe the Avett Brothers' music, a sublime blend of folk, country, hillbilly, and blues, swirled through with pop, rock, and a touch of wry punk. The Avett Brothers pick their way through America's folk styles, and deliver them in ways you'd never expect, all wrapped around lyrics, sometimes wry, sometimes dead-serious, but all delivered with the band's signature intensity. A fabulous album from a band that just keeps getting better.

I listened to it last week and was wholly unimpressed. Listened again this evening and found a bit to like. Perhaps it's a proverbial "grower."
I find this strangely compelling. For fans of Scratch Acid/Jesus Lizard.
