Hey, I'm just seeing this now. No offense taken! I'm a sad dad so it works for me.

Do you really think Shepherd is a sad-o record? I think it's got some of his happiest, most hopeful lyrics on there. He talks about love and marriage in a way that's full of joy. There's plenty of death and shit, sure, but I think especially on that record it's framed in terms of acceptance and wonder, awe even, at the enormity of it all.

oh i agree with all of that, I just wouldn't object to Jorge lumping it in with the other stuff based on a cursory listen
Oh, for sure. The great first discovery listening to his music is his sense of humor and wistfullness.

I am not going to argue any of these points about Molina. About 40% of his songs are about mythical bird creatures who drink human blood. Enough said.
