Fell in love with Glen Hansard when I first saw the movie Once. Then, I fell out of love with him when The Swell Season broke up and he just kind of sounded whiny brandishing his worn out guitar. The critics have bashed this album, but I find it refreshing. He's hired a session band, uses an organ and an electric guitar on some tracks and has actually made something that sounds interesting. For the exact reasons the critics gave for hating this album is exactly why I love it. Marketa Irglova from The Swell Season makes a guest appearance as does Dawn Landes.
