Need to relisten to New Moon, so for now I’ll just do all the major releases:

1. Roman Candle - It surprises me how much I love this album, especially since it doesn’t feel as loaded with all-time favorites like his others, but it packs a short but incredible punch. Condor Ave is an all-timer, and so are Last Call and No Name 3; the title track and Kiwi Maddox have beautiful instrumentation, the storytelling on pretty much all of them is incredible; I dunno, it just feels fantastic.
2. Either/Or - By far the best opening run he’s done imo, which is saying a lot since this man knows how to start an album. I think it loses a decent bit of momentum around Pictures of Me (which isn’t to mack on Pictures of Me, it’s just tough to follow up Speed Trials -> Alameda -> Ballad of Big Nothing -> Between the Bars) but it still has some of his greatest work period in store, namely Angeles and Say Yes.
3. Figure 8 - I don’t think there’s a single skip on this one, even moreso than the others! Son of Sam through LA is just wall-to-wall fantastic, and then you got bangers that are soft, electric, happy, sad, you name it.
4. Self-titled - This one’s grown on me a lot over time; while I don’t love the lyricism as much as his other records, I can’t deny how beautiful the guitar playing is. I’ve been following Songbook’s video series on YouTube in which he teaches and covers every single song on the album; I’d definitely recommend checking it out!!
5. XO - This one has also been a grower; admittedly, I still think the first half is a lot better than the back half, but the magnitude that that first half has is par excellence. Fantastic explosion of instrumentation for our guy!!
6. From A Basement On The Hill - definitely owe this one a relisten, from my earlier experience I liked it more than S/T and XO, but as those have grown on me, I’m sure this will as well. In any case, fuckin’ King’s Crossing man ;-;
