this thing is sweet
thanks solace

the vocals are like a cross between Roddy Woomble (Idlewild) and Morrissey

just pure pop perfection

the music is delicious

i used to think Jens Lekman was kind of overrated. Oh you're so silent Jens is a bit boring.

but this new album is really better.

I do love this album, although it took me a spin to realize what he was going for.

fantastic record... kinda surprised how high Pfork scored it, as it's not the OMG BEST album this year, but definitely worth of high praise.

i still think i prefer the first full length more, but it's awfully close.

for me currently?
there really isn't one, but Jens certainly ain't it

closest would be:

Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago

after that, prolly Boxer

This really is one of the gayest album covers in recent memory, though.

This album is soooo good. I could use it to woo the ladies.

When I Said I Wanted To Be Your Dog is better than this record. And it's SO FUCKING GOOD.

That was huge on the average.

I love this album. My ex-roommate even really liked it when she heard it playing.

I'm Leaving You Because I Don't Love is my favorite track.

Jens Lekman - Night Falls Over Kortedala
