i bought this as i first bought iron & wines our endless numbered days as it was so beautiful, anyway this record did not dissapoint me at all, more intricate guitar and soft vocals from sam beam. this is quite folky, but i really enjoy it, its nice to paint to. you should buy both iron & wines albums now!

Amazing! the first track loveletter typewriter is so beautiful, and the rest of the album is just as good. If your thinking about making a tape for that special person, just give them this album. For fans of Sunny Day, early Jimmy Eat... and Christie Front drive. Dont waste your money on 'it' bands like taking back sunday........

Ive heard so so much about Owen, Id already had American Football and loved it so i decided to get it and boy is it good, very intricate acoustic guitar backed up by superb lyrics and a soft delivery makes this a must for an fan of beautiful music. If like me ur sick of the whole emo thing, buy this and be blown away. No sidepartings or black nails here, just brutaly honest music with a dumpertruck full of emotion. A great cd to listen to with your loved one.

I got this after "the tops of trees..." every1 seems to say that this is better but i prefer Tops... but that doesnt mean its not good! beautiful accoustic guitar with lyrics anyone can relate, perfect for those thundery nights in under the covers. P.s everyone also compares lyndsay diaries to Dashboard but to me there is no camparrision because Scott Windsor has more emotion in his little finger than mr Carraba has in his whole body!

i went on the reviews on interpunk and frankly i was dissapointed, its been classed as Emo but Id just lump it in the Rock catergory. I wasnt to keen on Ryan Shelketss vocals but mayb u will?

I bought this album because I had the other two and im a big fan of both the GUKs and the new Ams, this includes a few more of the get up kids (the pope bros) and sounds On a Wire which is great cause i loved on a wire (even though everyone canned it when it came out) anyway if ur a fan of slow, heartfelt emo like Elliott, Bright Eyes (the list goes on) then you wont be dissapointed. Well done Matt! 5 stars!
