Dylan’s long shadow towers large over BT, but glad to see the comparison to Jim White as well. Eric Earley has been talking about Flannery O’Connor, Cormac McCarthy, and Faulkner lately…..those are all well known to Mr. White. Having seen both of these musicians/groups, they also use a lot of similar instruments. Appalachian psychedelia.

I’m a huge fan of Jack White, Brendan Benson and The Raconteur gang, but this is the album they have only dreamt of making. This album is outstanding!!!!

“Not Your Lover” also kinda reminds me of After The Goldrush era Neil

Incredible stuff. Can’t wait to see them in October open for Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks!

A definite surprise. As stated, their debut was a bit all over the place. Still good, just not cohesive. Furr is fantastic and complete.

Black River Killer is awesome, always nice to hear a beautiful murder ballad. That and the Dr. Dre O.G. whine keyboard thing sporadically in there. Really looking forward to this one.

I’m with you, Oz. I stopped short of saying that in the review as I didn’t necessarily want to eat my words later on if my thoughts shifted after the initial 3 or 4 spins, but this album is ridiculously good. It’s top 5 bound for certain, I think.

I’ve been listening non-stop all weekend. Might be the best album of 2008.
