I tend to pick songs here and there from New Moon. I don't really listen to the album as a whole.

I definitely think Either/Or is the best. I own it on vinyl. Epic.

I really like Ballad of Big Nothing, and Everything Means Nothing to Me

Either/Or is the best one for me.

Never really listened to his S/T, and I've never heard Roman Candle.

Wonder if they match up to Either/Or and XO.

Not in terms of accessibility, but there's great stuff on there nonetheless.

Heard his self titled once and listened to a bit of RC if I recall rightly, and I see what you mean about the accessibility. I instantly liked XO and Either/Or.

What are your favourite tracks from his S/T and RC? Roman Candle (the track) was a beautiful song, filled with sadness and anger.

Why? You don't like him? The guy was a genius...a tortured genius, but a genius nonetheless.
