Okay - so I was looking for something sombre and acoustic and my friend recommended "the creek that drank the cradle" by iron and wine. This album is incredible.
If you love Nick Drake YOU MUST GET THIS.
Anyone else heard this? It's really one of the best albums I've heard in a long, long time.

"the creek that drank the cradle" is absolutley gorgeous. My friend bought it after hearing it in a shop and i must say it is really fantastic. the songs have such sweet memorable melody lines. it's so simple yet so beautiful. if you like sparklehorses quiter moments, you'll love it!

:) No worries. It deserves a good helthy thread bout it :) i think it'll be one of those albums that not a lot of people own, but those who do will cherish it.
I love the vocal sound, it's so up-close yet soothing. mmm i could go on about this album but i'm beginning to sound like i released the album myself.

iron and wine's cover of The Postal Service's - Such Great Heights, blows away the original. definately check it out.
