Among the Leaves

by Sun Kil Moon

Among the Leaves cover art

Marking a shift towards the stream-of-consciousness style that would define his later work, Mark Kozelek delivers a sprawling collection of nylon-string folk songs. The lyrics are candid, often humorous, and obsessively self-referential, detailing life on the road and failed relationships. It feels like a diary opened up for the world to read.
