Got my hopes up when Simon & Garfunkel was mentioned. What a letdown.

They're a rather fun indie folk band. Nothing too too great, but I enjoy it
good band, good album. I like it

Haha yeah, not an accurate description. Just saying indie-folk would have worked.

I enjoy the record.They remind me a lot of Simon & Garfunkel. And the vocalist sounds kinda like Andy Hull, to me.

Tell me that they were the best who played.

Tell me that they were the best who played.
yes they were. I love Kenny, but Person L was bad except for when they played Wooden Soldiers.
Good Old War was too good.
watching Anthony Green live is like paying to take a nap. except for Dear Child.
The Simon & Garfunkel influence is amazingly obvious at times.
