1	The Shepherd's Dog (2007) more music like this by Iron & Wine Iron & Wine have shown an impressive work ethic since the release of The Creek Drank the Cradle in 2002. A flood of singles, EPs, and albums, each with high levels of quality, have made Iron & Wine and Sam Beam stars in the indie rock world. Introspective, leaning toward morose, and heavily bearded stars, but glittering just the same. 2007's The ... see all copies from $13.59! new only from $13.59!
2	Tidal (1996) more music like this by Fiona Apple Fiona Apple demonstrates considerable talent on her debut album, Tidal, but it is unformed, unfocused talent. Her voice is surprisingly rich and supple for a teenager, and her jazzy, sophisticated piano playing also belies her age. Given the right material, such talents could have flourished, but she has concentrated on her own compositions, which ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $10.00!
3	Our Endless Numbered Days (2004) more music like this by Iron & Wine On Our Endless Numbered Days, the follow-up to 2002's stunningly good Creek Drank the Cradle, the sound of Iron & Wine has changed but the song remains the same. No longer does Sam Beam record his intimate songs in the intimate surroundings of his home. Instead he has made the jump to the recording studio. As a result the record is much cleaner, ... see all copies from $11.95! new only from $11.95!
4	Greatest Hits (2007) more music like this by David Gray Those looking to score their Sunday afternoons with polished, mid-tempo ruminations of life and love could do much worse than this compilation of David Gray's best work. "Babylon" is the only track to have previously enjoyed much chart success in the States, and many American listeners will find Greatest Hits to be more of a primer to Gray's ... see all copies from $14.33! new only from $14.33!
5	Made of Bricks (2007) more music like this by Kate Nash On a first listen to Kate Nash's debut Made of Bricks, it's easy to hear the similarities to her contemporaries (Lily Allen, the Streets, Amy Winehouse) and influences (Björk, Robbie Williams). Her most popular songs are both intimate and confrontational, using brief portraits and slang-conversational vocals to illustrate the larger issues going ... see all copies from $8.31! new only from $8.31!
6	Fox Confessor Brings the Flood (2006) more music like this by Neko Case Neko Case hasn't had much need to prove her credentials as a major artist since making her solo debut with 1997's The Virginian, but she's been refining her skills in the recording studio on each subsequent release, and with 2006's Fox Confessor Brings the Flood she's fashioned an album that can cautiously be called a masterpiece. As always, Case ... see all copies from $14.69! new only from $14.69!
7	The Best of Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds (1998) more music like this by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds Nick Cave is unquestionably an album artist. Each of his records has a specific mood and theme, standing as an individual work. That said, his albums have also been notoriously uneven. Sometimes, as on From Her to Eternity or The Boatman's Call, he has delivered near-masterpieces, while on other albums, only a handful of songs have hit the mark ... see all copies from $6.70! new only from $10.00!
8	Extraordinary Machine (2005) more music like this by Fiona Apple Like Wilco's Yankee Hotel Foxtrot before it, Fiona Apple's third album, Extraordinary Machine, turned into an Internet legend as fans leaked the unreleased record as labels left it on the shelves. Since Wilco's album notoriously remained unreleased because their label deemed it uncommercial, Apple fans who were patiently waiting a long, long time ... see all copies from $4.98! new only from $6.45!
9	Cassadaga (2007) more music like this by Bright Eyes Call him pretentious, call him sensitive, call him what you will, but there's no denying the fact that Conor Oberst is a talented and intelligent songwriter. Actually, it's probably more correct to say that Bright Eyes are a group of talented and intelligent songwriters, because it's the pedal steel, the clamorous percussion, the orchestral ... see all copies from $12.56! new only from $12.56!
10	When the Pawn Hits the Conflicts He Thinks Like a King... (1999) more music like this by Fiona Apple Fiona Apple may have been grouped in with the other female singer/songwriters who dominated the pop charts in 1996 and 1997, but she stood out by virtue of her grand ambitions and considerable musical sophistication. Even though her 1996 debut Tidal occasionally was hampered by naiveté, it showcased a gifted young artist in the process of finding ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $11.06!
11 view cover	Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Canyon (2007) more music like this by Devendra Banhart In the early days of Devendra Banhart's career, his ghostly voice singing down the phone and captured on four track was more than enough to lend the eerie mysticism required for his nonsensical material (of course, it didn't hurt that his voice was bewitching no matter the lyrical content). As he gradually acquired confederates and the ability to ... see all copies from $9.68! new only from $13.25!
12 view cover	White Chalk (2007) more music like this by PJ Harvey The quiet ones are always the scariest. Polly Jean Harvey's appearance on the cover of White Chalk -- all wild black hair and ghostly white dress -- could replace the dictionary definition of eerie, and the album itself plays like a good ghost story. It's haunted by British folk, steeped in Gothic romance and horror, and almost impossible to get ... see all copies from $5.93! new only from $13.42!
13 view cover	No More Shall We Part (2001) more music like this by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds No More Shall We Part ends a four-year silence from Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds. A best-of was issued in 2000, but no new material has appeared since 1997's landmark album, The Boatman's Call. With that record Cave had finally delivered what everyone knew he was capable of: an entire album of deeply tragic and beautiful love songs without irony, ... see all copies from $6.70! new only from $10.76!
14 view cover	Instant Karma: The Amnesty International Campaign to Save Darfur (2007) more music like this by Various Artists Let's get the basics out of the way first: Instant Karma: The Amnesty International Campaign to Save Darfur is a charity album for a great cause, a benefit for Amnesty International's campaign to aid the crisis in the Sudan, an unimpeachable nonpartisan cause if there ever was one. For this campaign, Yoko Ono donated the publishing to John Lennon ... see all copies from $3.90! new only from $19.21!
15 view cover	Woman King (2005) more music like this by Iron & Wine Anyone still hoping that Sam Beam and Iron & Wine would ever go back to the lo-fi sound of their first album might as well give up on that pipe dream. On the 2005 EP Woman King, Iron & Wine's sound is more produced and varied than ever. The record's arrangements are overflowing with a wealth of percussion, vocal harmonies, banjos, violins, and ... see all copies from $6.09! new only from $6.09!
16 view cover	The Creek Drank the Cradle (2002) more music like this by Iron & Wine Iron and Wine's debut record, The Creek Drank the Cradle, is written, produced, and performed by Sam Beam and features only Beam's voice, a gently strummed acoustic guitar, some slide guitar, and the occasional banjo. Iron and Wine creates intimate and emotional songs, recorded bedroom-style but never letting the lo-fi get in the way of the tune. ... see all copies from $12.56! new only from $12.56!
17 view cover	Limón y Sal (2006) more music like this by Julieta Venegas A couple years removed from her mainstream breakthrough album, Sí (2002), and its string of perfect pop hits, Julieta Venegas returned with a similar album, Limón y Sal. It's difficult to fault her for doing so. Certainly, her earlier rock en español work -- Aquí (1998) and Bueninvento (2000) -- was critically acclaimed and remains well regarded. ... see all copies from $12.96! new only from $13.48!
18 view cover	Back Flipping Forward (2006) more music like this by Will Dailey Hailing equally from the classic Bob Dylan and Tom Waits school of singer/songwriters as well as that of modern heroes like John Mayer, Boston based artist Will Dailey betrayed his roots for a time in search of the perfect record deal in Los Angeles before some hard experiences led him back home. Produced by Tom Polce and featuring some of ... see all copies from $4.51! new only from $9.44!
19 view cover	Happenstance (2004) more music like this by Rachael Yamagata Happenstance is Yamagata's debut long-player; it is a logical and delightful follow-up to her acclaimed, self-titled EP. It features 13 listed tracks that are either self-penned or written in collaboration with producer John Alagía (John Mayer, Josh Kelly) and mentor/guitarist Kevin Salem. The cuts "Worn Me Down" and "Reason Why" carry over, but ... see all copies from $7.94! new only from $11.06!
20 view cover	I'll Be Lightning (2007) more music like this by Liam Finn Liam Finn's musical apprenticeship was at the feet of his father, Neil, the acclaimed singer/songwriter behind Crowded House. Finn's teenage band Betchadupa opened for Neil on solo tours in the late '90s, and when Crowded House re-formed in 2007, Liam joined as a touring member. Such close familial connections are not uncommon among Finns -- Neil ... see all copies from $11.63! new only from $11.63!
21 view cover	Murder Ballads (1996) more music like this by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds In some ways, Murder Ballads is the record Nick Cave was waiting to make for his entire career. Death and violence have always haunted his music, even when he wasn't explicitly singing about the subject. On Murder Ballads, he sings about nothing but death in the most gruesome, shocking fashion. Divided between originals and covers, the record is ... see all copies from $9.95! new only from $12.91!
22 view cover	Release the Stars (2007) more music like this by Rufus Wainwright If ever there was an artist that embodied both the urbane popular songsmithing of Cole Porter and the epic winged grandeur of Richard Wagner it is Rufus Wainwright. Having not so much perfected as succumbed to this yin-yang pull on his laboriously ambitious and intermittently inspired 2003 and 2004 albums Want One and Want Two, Wainwright once ... see all copies from $3.91! new only from $13.34!
23 view cover	Obligatory Villagers (2007) more music like this by Nellie McKay The irony inherent in Obligatory Villagers, the shortest of Nellie McKay's first three albums, is that it's her most difficult to understand, comprehend, or even take in. This despite the fact that, unlike her first two albums, these nine songs don't sprawl stylistically. Except for a light pop opener -- granted, that opener is a mocking satire of ... see all copies from $14.22! new only from $14.22!
24 view cover	Scarred (2007) more music like this by Johnette Napolitano It's taken a while for Johnette Napolitano, the powerful singer and songwriter from the defunct Concrete Blonde, to find her way, but she hasn't been in a hurry. She released a couple of records independently through CD Baby, collaborated with Talking Heads when they re-formed without David Byrne, worked on film soundtracks, made a film herself, ... see all copies from $7.98! new only from $10.64!
25 view cover	Veneer (2005) more music like this by José González Don't let the name fool you; singer/songwriter José González is a Swedish-born and -raised son of Argentine parents. His debut album, Veneer, is a striking collection of hushed and autumnal indie pop bedroom songs that reside on the hi-fi end of the lo-fi spectrum. González is definitely a member of the "quiet is the new loud" school as founded by ... see all copies from $13.59! new only from $13.59!
