Lonely roasted peanuts

Got this a while ago, listened to it, generally liked it, forgot about it, remembered it, listened to it again, loved it, kept listening to it. This album's a good one to throw on if you just feel like lying on your bed and thinking about shit (or not) while listening to some music, which is what I've been feeling like doing lately. It's quiet and relaxed, with the singer somberly slurring depressing lyrics full of analogies of discontent and a general desire to sleep (fittingly enough), but most songs eventually build into a calm, yet rocking climax. Lyrics aside, it's not necessarily a depressing album; the vocals tend to take a backseat and blend along with the rest of the music in a way that gives it all a more easy-going, contemplative feel, which is what drew me to it.
