Different, but still the same ole' Mike Kinsella

"First off, let me start off by saying this album is different from all of Owen's other efforts. More upbeat, corkier vocals, and a wider variety of musical ranges are spread throughout this album. This doesn't, however, take away Owen's "sing me to sleep"-esque qualities.



Leaning more toward the folk side of music this time around, this album start's off terrificly with "Who Found Who's Hair In Who's Bed" which within 30 second's of the song you realize that this is something different than their previous efforts. And after this song, the entire album just flows by, around, and through you. This album could easily be the soundtrack to this Winter.



I Do Perceive is the friendliest album to date by Mike Kinsella & co. If you're looking for something with a laid-back vocal style and dreamy music to whisk you away for the Winter, this album will prove to be amazing."

"I first heard owen a few years back and am yet to hear anyone who can even come close to his musical talent and ability to write the most beautiful songs.'accidentally' was the first song i heard and upon hearing it i froze. it was honestly that beautiful and emotional i was entranced. ever since then i have listened to owen constantly. mike kinsella (owen) has consistantly recorded masterpiece after master piece and all his albums are worthy of a purchase. i have influenced so many friends with owen and not matter what their taste, they have fallen for owen. i cannot stress enough how much you need this album and his others in your life. Mike Kinsella has set the bar at an unbelievable high standard and i cant see anyone writing better music than him.



take my advice-buy this and his other 3 albums."
