Things to Listen to

Tonight, we were cooking and I popped this album into the CD player. It has legs. Seriously… this is like 10 years later? (Stop to check their website… yep, released in 1999.) This album is well worth picking up if you never heard it… or even if you did. It’s a solid, no skips listening experience.

A lot of times when I go back to albums I loved, I find that I loved them in spite of their quality, not because of it. This album doesn’t fit that mold. Lyrically, it’s gold. There’s depth, there is beauty, there are really great analogies, like 40 Acres of redemption to be found just along, down the way.

Seriously, go buy it… from a store, from itunes, from wherever. You won’t regret it.
