Elliott Smith v. Onelinedrawing
Elliott Smith versus Jonah Matranga's Onelinedrawing . Lets have an indie-acoustic throwdown!
Here are 2 of my favorite tracks by these two bands - both about parades.
This is off of Smith's 1997 Either Or LP, which is possibly my favorite of his albums. I vacillate a lot on which is my favorite Elliott Smith album - Either Or, Figure 8, XO. It changes daily. however, the recent posthumous New Moon release is climbing in the rankings!
This is off of Onelinedrawing's Sketchy EP #2. It is about the disillusionment of a returned-home soldier (Vietnam era perhaps?). It may be one of the saddest songs in my collection. In other news, Jonah has dropped the Onelinedrawing moniker, and has a new album called And. Its good - a lot better than the Sketchy EP 3 he put out right before it.
Give each a listen and comment on which one you like best.
