| | Amazon.com: Tiny Cities: Music: Sun Kil Moon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01) |
 | | Sun Kil Moon leader Mark Kozelek's own recorded cover choices in the past--Kiss, Simon and Garfunkel, AC/DC, and most successfully John Denver--hew far closer to the traditional indie approach to covers: a semi-ironic, studied transformation of a tune into something it wasn't before. |
 | | With Sun Kil Moon, Pitchfork says, Mark is "putting to use a variety of wondrous subtle sonic touches that mark unbelievable artistic growth, unraveling unexplored harmonic territory while staying faithful to his trademark brand of languid folk-rock introspection." Two years ago, Mark saw Modest Mouse and sensed something original and explosive. |
 | | Kozelek picks songs from every single album from the group, and while I applaud his choices, his actual performances are pretty narrow in scope (usually limited to repeated guitar phrases and some sort of slight melody and timing change with the vocals). |
