The cover foreshadows the music itself, quiet with a wintery sheen. Vernon's falsetto vocals soar over simply strummed guitar. It's a wonderful debut.
Despite that, it really is shocking to me that this record became such a big deal. I like it, don't get me wrong, but I don't know that it's not any better than quite a few simple lofi indie albums since the first Iron & Wine release.
