The Meadowlands
by The Wrens
released 2003
One of my favorite albums of all time (if not my most favorite) - the swirling ease of the drunken but precise guitar being used as percussion instrument at times - and the layered vocals of what sounds like various portions of a long rambling letter to an ex-girlfriend - makes for one of the most powerful and cathartic albums I have ever witnessed - it's layered for ultimate enjoyment through headphones - but it's energetic and full of swirling rock enough to be blasted at 11 and driven around to while you scream your head off singing along in the car - complex and powerful - brutally honest and bittersweet
