It's the acoustic stuff that I don't like. Everything I had heard by him until today sounded like that and there's something about it that really bugs me. As a result of this thread, I listened to some samples from a couple of the albums mentioned and I can see why you and a few others have said that his sound has changed from album to album. Maybe I'd like some of that other stuff, but I'm really not a fan of his sparse acoustic songs.
