That would explain why every time I play the Bill Callahan record, everyone in my house mistakes him for Eddie Vedder.

I can't believe more reviewers haven't made that connection, really.

[Jorge]

Do Bill Callahan and The National share a style?

Is "morose" a style?

I feel like I listened to a lot of records this year but not many really stuck with me; many I've liked, few I've really loved. Anyway, there's a list of some of them. That Mogwai soundtrack was really good and honourable mentions to Chelsea Wolfe, Earthless, Lee Ranaldo, Vista Chino, Noveller, Tumbleweed Dealer and Polvo.

[zeb]

I couldn't find much to enjoy in that Atoms For Peace record.
