Yep.  I've heard half of it (I didn't want to completely spoil myself.. ahah).  I liked 'In My Lady's House'... went well on a mix.

I'll probably order it soon since I shall get more money by next month.

I've heard some samples from it, and I like what I hear. I might just look into it.

So fucking good. My favorite release of the year so far, but we do have 10 more months.

Damn. I downloaded a couple of tracks.

1: That guy should never sing ever again.

2: They need to work on their guitar sound. I say 'guitar', because I want to try and convince myself I didn't just listen to a cat-gut strung banjo for nearly ten minutes.

usually i think they're boring, but this one is nice.



"Evening on the Ground (Lilith's Song)" has the BEST f-bomb droppage since the Decemberists' "Clementine".

I finally got it a few days ago -- sorry, just got a chance to check back into the forums.

I like how Jezebel was reworked.

I've had a bside lofi version of it for awhile... in fact, I uploaded it to my site a long while back and it's still there...

here it is in case anyone hasn't heard it before.

I got the vinyl about a week ago and havent stopped listening to it. Definetly my favourite of the year so far.

i reviewed it for my college radio station... of course, ripped it to my comp as well.

decent, though i think my favorite I&W stuff is the lo-fi sounding early material.  hi-fi folk music just sounds odd to me.  

i prefer the pretty melodies over the almost tribal sounds of some of the stuff on this new ep.  though, damn...  it's cool to hear electric, DISTORTED guitar on the last song.  makes it sound evil as hell.

Ok, so I'm a little late in finally hearing this band... finally went out and got "Our Endless Numbered Days" today.  I've gotta say I was fairly pleased with it...  his voice was like hearing someone whispering to you from a past age.  I felt myself wishing he'd "cut loose" a little bit more on some songs where that kind of thing is appropriate, but maybe that's just the way this particular style works.  Still, my initial impression is overwhlemingly good.
