The Tallest Man On Earth - Shallow Graves



Driving around yesterday in the beautiful weather, I hit random on my iPod and up came The Tallest Man On Earth's Shallow Graves. What a perfect selection from The Great Random Machine! There's something about stripped-down folk music that complements the beauty of creation.

As for the album, it's solid. The opening 3 tracks are sure-fire ear-pleasers. The album does fade a bit from there on out, but there are still some awesome tracks towards the end like "The Blizzard's Never Seen the Ocean Sand." If you like Iron & Wine, Phosphorescent, Bon Iver or The Acorn, check it out.

Highly Recommended
