Listen to The Wild Hunt. Repeatedly. One of my favorite albums ever, it's shot up in my rankings in the past few months.

There's No Leaving Now is really fantastic, though, all I've been listening to the past few days. There's definitely more innovation and unique sounds on this album compared to the previous two, and that makes it all sound fresh. Everything's still beautifully done, too, so honestly I'm incredibly impressed with this release.

There's No Leaving Now is possibly his best song. It's early to say, because Love Is All is still very much up there (and other songs as well), but man.. There's No Leaving Now just blew me away.

So I've listened to The Wild Hunt a couple times now. I'm sure it will grow on me more, but as of right now I would say its solid. It's astonishing how much this guy reminds me of Dylan, both his voice and his lyrical capabilities.

Little Brother and On Every Page are quite beautiful songs.  I'm not sold on the rest of the album yet (or the rest of his material) but I'll give it time. 

Revelation Blues is very nice too.

The chorus of Bright Lanterns genuinely has the best lyrics I've heard in anything since 60s era Dylan. Genuinely.

There's No Leaving Now is my first experience of this guy. It is most good.

I'd say the new is his best one yet.

Just listening to the new one for the first time now, so I guess it's way too early for me to say if I think something off of this album is my favorite. As it stands, I think Burden of Tomorrow is number 1 for me.

Check 25:55 (and a bit onwards) of that video. I wish more artsist would so this. I remember at Werchter 3 years ago I think Mogwai was there and they did the same thing. Like "please don't do that anymore" and restarted their song.

I saw him live back in 2011, but the seats are much better now. Last time I had to stand behind some tall dudes, but this time it's all seated, so should be nice. :)
