Bright Eyes
Filed Under Album Picks
Conor Oberst, Mike Mogis and Nate Walcott are the guys behind Bright Eyes and although 2006 was a rather quiet year for the band they did release a collection of singles entitled, Noise Floor (Saddle Creek) on October 24th. Noise Floor has done a good job of passing the time until the release of their full length album due out Spring 2007. But before the full length Saddle Creek will get fans excited for the full length with the release of Four Winds an EP containing 5 B-sides due out March 7, 2007. Look for the band to perform some February dates as well.
Four Winds Track Listing:
1. Four Winds
2. Reinvent the Wheel
3. Smoke Without Fire
4. Stray Dog Freedom
5. Cartoon Blues
6. Tourist Trap
As we look to 2007 we can listen to a couple tracks from Noise Floor and a favorite track of mine from the 2002 release Lifted or the Story is in the Soil, Keep Your Ear to the Ground (Yeah longest album title ever)

You may have noticed a lot of the files on this page are not working…Sorry for the inconvenience, first the bandwidth issue and now Filelodge is down for maintenance. Hopefully they won’t be down for too much longer…I think I have used every hosting service available since the EZ debacle but I decided Dreamhost is a must in the new year.
Also, check out the New Year’s Contrast Podcast, a perfect playlist to ring in 2007.
Plus go check out FiL’s “choonz released in 2006 that made me a happy FiL“ list it is awesome x5!

I’ve always avoided Conor Oberst, but now that was intriguing. I don’t know that it will win me over (you above all make me feel so so pop,) but i certainly will give it a try.
Also, from your description I desperately want to hear Pure Horsehair, but alas…
this doesn’t have anything to do with your lovely post. i just want to cry, coz not only is filelodge still in the crapper, now blog city is down or something, and i can’t even access my own blog!! boo hoo, poor me!
i can’t wait for cassadaga to come out. and so so many others too–2007 is looking splendid
yeah! i hadnt heard about the ep yet…im jonesin’ so bad for some new bright eyes.
