"Mr. Brownlee recommended this one, since I had only one download left. It's 72 minutes long of avant minimalism. Don't worry, it's more than just the crackling sounds that open the track." less

"Do I have three downloads to spare for one of the most underrated guitar bands of all time? Yes. Yes I do." less

"I didn't expect to like this, but listening through it has won me over. On his first record for Merge, Oberst has turned down the quaking vibrato in favor of a more steady, stoic delivery. His backing arrangements are a winning impersonation of mid-70s Dylan. It's kinda awesome." less

"A superb collection of Reatard's singles 2006-07 singles. I was surprised by how clean the production is on some of these. That clarity mostly enhances the energy of these performances, while revealing more solid melodies than he's generally given credit for." less

"A lot more going on here than on the lackluster Kevin Drew effort. There are ideas and melodies. Even a few chord changes." less

"Didn't even listen to it; just hit "download." I know it got mixed reviews. I don't care. It's the Breeders, even if it's a train wreck I've got to watch it. Besides, I know there is at least one amazing song on this record." less
