I still prefer Shallow Grave to The Wild Hunt. The latter may boast better individual songs, but the former is listenable from front to back whereas I just can't get into King Of Spain and Kids On The Run.

Great, great artist. I could listen to The Gardener all day.

He's fantastic! He's one of the only folk artists I've really gotten into. I prefer Shallow Grave to The Wild Hunt but both are fantastic.

The EP is pretty damn good too although I'd gotten it after Shallow Grave so I had already heard 2 of the tracks. The other 2 though: kickass

Yeah both of his albums are great!

He is so reminiscent of Dylan it is scary. Anyone else here this? His voice is even kind of similar to me.

His Second=His First

I love both his albums very much, I just love his music and spent a long time being incredibly addicted to The Gardner and Where Do My Bluebird Fly? Hell, the entirety of Shallow Grave I have to give Wild Hunt a few more listens but it certainly is really good. One of my favorite Swedish finds.

Indeed! Well.. I do like Shallow Grave more but Wild Hunt isn't bad at all.

The Wild Hunt has really not grabbed my attention like Shallow Grave did.

I like it raw (to quote Ol' Dirty Bastard, rip) and his rough, off-kilter vocals on Shallow Grave really do it for me - The Wild Hunt seems like a more 'mature' effort which is disappointing.
