How did this place so low on Shmoo's pole? It's such a beautiful record (if you lop off that last track). I'm really surprised.

186 with only 6 points. It was 6 on my list so I supplied 3 of those points.

Max's records don't have much of an impact on me. Perhaps they will yet.

I still think "Lookaftering" was the type of record that I'd be able to widely agree on with people here.

I heard it after my list was finished, but I'm not sure it would have pushed anything off. And that doesn't mean I don't like it- it's quite lovely. Given a choice between it and the Marissa Nadler disk, I'd take the Nadler every time, though.

Vashti was #6 for me (possibly too high)
Marissa was #16 (about right)

I may only have it on my iPod at this point. I'll look around (as I'm seeking out the vinyl too).

Kind of reminds me of a darker, flatter (not in a bad way) Nina Nastasia?

Or a less quirky Josephine Foster. Very pretty music.
