Iron & Wine - Woman King [EP]

I first heard this two years ago in a mud hut. Matt and I were probably chatting about comic book movies and he thought I should hear the newest from Iron & Wine. It's really good. This EP is much better than there other stuff. I like their folky-sounding approach but the super lo-fi made it difficult for me to finish an entire album. But this starts the new sound. I like the multiple layers: gentle guitar, waify angelic background vocals, harpsichord? And that percussion! I love the use of tambourines! I just groove, I squint my eyes and just bob my head softly up and down.


I finally received this album from Matt when I went on home leave to Americaland. He loaded me up on a bunch of Iron & Wine. I look forward to learning more and who knows, maybe it'll open me up to their older catalogue.
