I'm kind of ambivalent about Blood Bank. On one hand, he does some pretty cool stuff on a few tracks, but I'm not digging the vocal production at all. My friend says he should give up making any more music.
Yeah but you have to actually play and recommend the record too ...and less of the smarmy bastard too. JH is not in a good mood.

I need to relisten to the EP as the quality was terrible and I did'nt replace it.

Some of the songs are ok but this album was a bit snoozy for me. Therefore I never listen to it.

One accoustic sounding album that I really got into was the Accidental's There Were Wolves.

Does "Blood Bank" have any songs that his debut didn't have? Otherwise I wouldn't even bother looking for it.

Just got For Emma, Forever Ago and I love it. His songs have a kind of simple sadness about them that really appeals to me. Very nice album.

Ahh, Bon Iver. His album does have a few miss tracks, but Flume, Skinny Love, For Emma, and re:Stacks, make up for it. Especially Skinny Love.
