Bright Eyes - The People's Key Label: Saddle Creek – LBJ-158 Format: Vinyl, LP New Second pressing with simplified packaging. Standard jacket, folded 23.5" x 11.75" insert, and plastic mp3 download card. 180 gram LP. Country: US Released: 01 Apr 2011 Genre: Rock Tracklist A1 Firewall A2 Shell Games A3 Jejune Stars A4 Approximate Sunlight A5 Haile Selassie B1 A Machine Spiritual (In The People's Key) B2 Triple Spiral B3 Beginner's Mind B4 Ladder Song B5 One For You, One For Me This album is a rich, balanced culmination of Conor's musical journeys, and there are audible hints indicating inspiration from Smashing Pumpkins and Weezer's "Pinkerton," from 80's synthesizer energy to the late rock aesthetics. This is a solid album, bridging the band's soul-searching double release in '05 and the spiritual journey of Cassadaga from '07 into this new message of enlightenment and universal truths. On The People's Key Oberst is more self-aware than on earlier Bright Eyes' albums. He is more outward looking and comes across as wise yet jaded, as opposed to merely depressed and introspective. The album also benefits immensely from Oberst's work with the Mystic Valley Band. The People's Key takes everything great about Bright Eyes and builds on it brilliantly. Bright Eyes - Jejune Stars Bright Eyes - Shell Games this is my favorite song with the word "oscilloscopes" in it Bright Eyes - A Machine Spiritual (The People's Key)
