OPINION
There are some really good songs on the album, and his style is unique and inspired. His style has been described as indie folk, psych, freak folk, naturalismo, and New weird America; his lyrics are often surreal and naturalistic. Surreal about sums his style up seen as though one of his songs "Little Boys" is sang from the perspective of a skitzophrenic hermaphrodite.
