Bright Eyes
Mood:  bright
Now Playing: Bright eyes - Poison Oak
So I delved into my almost empty bank account and forked out for a copy of Bright Eyes' new album, I'm Wide Awake It's Morning...and I don't really regret it, to be honest! Conor Oberst brought in Jim James (My Morning Jacket) and Emmylou Harris (legend) to play on the album,and the results, as you would expect, are fantastic! it's much more acoustic guitar based record, no sign of the keyboards he used on his previous two albums. it's got a great country feel to it and he doesn't tend to ramble on half as much as he does on the other albums. Plus, although the first track follows his trend of having monologue-orientated openers, it turns into a fantastic song. bizarre monologue though. the final song appears to be an anti-war tune, which is great, but I have to examine the lyrics of the other tracks to see if they are too.

anywho. I have to finish that article. and then work tonight..and tomorrow...and sunday!! argh!
