Jens Lekman can occassionally knock a song out of the park. "Pocketful of Money" for instance is really great, and probably the only non-annoying use of Calvin Johnson's voice ever recorded...but...and I know I've touched on this before...I just don't understand the current trend towards overblown grandiosity.
Stuff like this, Beirut, Anthony and the Johnsons, and The Fiery Furnaces baffle me. Why in the world would you want to sound like the special guest singer on the Lawrence Welk show?
