The Beast in Its Tracks
73/100
A review of this album in the Boston Globe really hit the mark by comparing this album to Beck's Sea Change. Both are post-breakup albums full of intensely personal acoustic songs. Aside from that observation, the only other thing that comes to mind is that the music is less odd than the cover art. Good album, but really, what's up with this picture? Is his shirt on fire? Or are some body-dwelling plants sprouting from his shoulders? In any case: why? Terrible.
