Iron & Wine
Written on Jul 17, 2007 // Music.
Remember real music? Acoustic music? Music before every monkey started thinking that screaming into a mic and scraping a hand across a guitar makes him a musician? Before sound engineers started thinking that producing an album meant turning up the bass instead of capturing the whole sound spectrum as faithfully as possible?
Well, that kind of music is still being made, and a most excellent example of it is Iron & Wine’s Our Endless Numbered Days. Simply beautiful. Check it out here and here.
