"Mike Kinsella (Owen) is simply amazing! His music is perfect for a lonely, winter night drive, and I pick out something new every time I listen to ‘At Home With Owen.’ He’s phenomenal with layering instruments and vocal harmonies. It’s almost impossible to catch it all on just the first few listens. When you put on this CD, it feels like you’re at his house, sitting on the couch, while he’s across the room playing songs for you. It’s so relaxed and organic. Everything from his incredible finger-picking acoustic guitar playing to his soft spoken vocals. Buy this CD right now, put it in your car stereo, and go for a drive. You might find yourself at home with Owen."

that's a short review i wrote up for this little music recommendations magazine i am putting out locally.

anyway, right now on Owen's MySpace, you can listen to his albums 'At Home With Owen' and 'I Do Perceive' in their entirety. i suggest that everyone get on this awesomeness ASAP!!!

Already an Owen thread...

But I agree, I love Owen. I Do Perceive was my avatar until a few days ago.

I listened to 'At Home With Owen' for the first time today. It's great. The only songs that I don't like so far are 'Use Your Words' and 'Windows and Doorways'. But I'm sure they'll grow on me with time.

At Home With Owen is one of my most-listened to albums this year
always knew him by New Leaves and wasn't impressed by that, but AHWO I think I may like better than American Football even

AHWO is my favorite Owen release, I'd say I like it more than American Football, for the sole reason that AF came into my life when I was 17. AHWO came along later, and really was something that I felt Kinsella progressed into flawlessly. Both are incredible though, that's for sure.
