    2002

    James

    Conor Oberst, young and overflowing with ideas both brilliant and frustrating, throws absolutely everything into this album: folk songs, orchestras, noise, panic, jokes, self-loathing, and bursts of beauty. "Make War" is lovely, "You Will. You? Will...“ sounds like it was recorded in the same attic it's set in, and "Let's Not Shit Ourselves (To Love and to Be Loved)" is a rowdy and ragged folk/rock manifesto. "Lover I Don’t Have to Love,” “Bowl of Oranges,” and “Waste of Paint” swing wildly between intimacy and emotional overload. It’s messy in a way that feels completely inseparable from its power.
