Re: Away From The World or Big Whiskey?
Still too early to tell. I think there's more heart and emotional depth to BW, but the music and production is far better on AWTW. I wish more and more that they could've done BW with Lillywhite. That album might've been damn near perfect with his touch and input on the arrangements. While I really enjoy the music of AFTW, I just don't connect with it on a more emotional level as there's just not a lot of interesting stuff happening lyrically, so I really don't know how this album will hold up over time. Already I find myself gravitating to the standout songs and skipping many others. Not necessarily a great sign for long life.
I'll get back to you in a year, but my guts telling me that I'm going to appreciate BW a bit more for what it meant as an album.
