#010 Elliot Brood - Mountain Meadow

I found the right pleasant Write it all Down for You on an mp3 blog, put it on a mix, and decided to follow up.

Things start off unpleasantly, formlessly shouty, but the souring guitars and plucked banjo bring a majesty to T-Bill, which leads nicely into the jaunty shuffle of the aforementioned WiaDfY. Nice, upbeat distorted guitars all over the place here, I reckon this might make good driving music. It gets surprisingly textured and atmospheric at the end, like early Yo La Tengo, or music I listened to as an undergrad. I dig it. - 4/5
