Remember when I said I thought the Red House Painters' music was boring? Well, I take that back. Admittedly, I only listened to Down Colorful Hill and Rollercoaster and neglected the latter half of their discography because I thought it was going to sound the same, but Ocean Beach and Songs For a Blue Guitar are both seriously great records. Still the same slow-tempoed music, but a little more kick in the music, making it a little livelier. Also, "San Geronimo" is a jam. Without a doubt, these two are my favorites in their discography.
I've been on a Mark Kozelek binge lately. He's probably going to be the soundtrack to my summer.
