He's undeniably whiny as fuck. Most of the time, he sounds like he's in tears. He's incredibly self-indulgent (check out the radio station bit in the second-to-last track of Fevers & Mirrors). To say that he's melodramatic is understatement.
And yet, he's got some stuff that's more than worthwhile. Because despite the bad aspects of his music, he's a great lyricist and cranks out some really catchy stuff.
I have Fevers & Mirrors and Lifted, and prefer the latter. My favorite songs include "Haligh, Haligh, a Lie, Haligh", "Don't Know When But a Day's Gonna Come", "Bowl of Oranges", and "The Calendar Hung Itself".
For those who have his other albums, what album would you recommend I get next?
