i don't really know them that well so this might not be a fair evaluation of them.

but the guy kind of sounds like belle and sebastian. although if you're listening to mountain goats you probably already know belle and sebastian.

maybe this guy is relevant, but i don't know. it's kind of cheesey but i really like this song:

I dunno, id say neutral milk hotel or grandaddy. Nmh has the same vocal stylings to acoustic guitar and grandaddy has the whole story telling element to them... plus they're all good bands so you can't lose either way

Post by: blood hell on December 05, 2009, 10:20:45 pm
i dont feel like figure 8 gets enough love from elliott smith fans, it's really sonically beautiful and has really amazing impressionistic lyrics like Everything Means Nothing To Me. pretty much all of his albums are great though, he couldnt write a bad song. im literally amazed you havent familiarized yourself with him yet

I've always liked Elliott's Self Titled album the best, but I think I'm the only one. It's kinda hard to go wrong with any of his records though.

But I'd suggest smog/Bill Callahan too. Red Apple Falls is probably a good place to start.

also best smith song weeeeeeeeeeeeeelp that's a mighty difficult question since his songs vary in style and meaning a lot. try 'needle in the hay'-
ahhaha all the songs mentioned here, mine including, are all really obvious choices but i suppose it's hard to suggest songs since it has to be THE... THE BEST SONG...
seriously couchfield. ALL THIS TIME with steel and chef even mentioning him all the time, where have you been?!? i feel bad for not mentioning anything related to the topic but i don't know anything about it.

Post by: bonzi_buddy on December 07, 2009, 08:54:35 pm
hey jackson c frank rules. one of the influences for me. i think he is one of the few so far whose lyrics i have liked. you fuckos you should listen to him a bit more. HALLOWEEN IS BLACK AS NIGHT.



also martin gretch. i have kind of mixed feelings about him because the first time i heard open-heart zoo's sample from last.fm i was all like 'whoa this is pretty buckley'.
then i checked the rest of the samples and whaaaaaaaaat the hell, the rest is just dragonslayer 'i love progmetal' - music. baaaaaaaaaaaaaarf. Frostypink can you give any recommendations (of Martin Gretch)? gimme recs!!!

edit2 god DAMN open-heart zoo blows!! it blows hard!! holy shit i just don't like the arreangement or the feel of the song at all. it starts to smell after few listens. still GIMME REC
