Iron and Wine are here with their ep The Sea & The Rhythm on Sub Pop (on vinyl for the first time with free download inside). These lot are my housemates favourites and listening to them now explains his bouts of seclusion and severe autistic social interaction. Sensitive Folk music making good use of acoustic guitar and banjo. The understated breathy melodies (Elliott Smith) create a mood of pretty twinkly lo-fi wonderment . 5 songs of simple maudlin beauty to help you forget a shit week of having to deal with stupid folk.
