Check out Sunlandic Twins if you're ever in the mood, it actually has 3 tracks I listen to just as much as my favs from Fauna (Party's Crashing Us, So Begins Our Alabee, Requiem for OMM2).
Thanks, I probably should, since it came out between my two favorites of theirs. For years I overlooked one of my favorite Mountain Goats albums, We Shall All Be Healed, because it got weaker reviews than the albums it was sandwiched between (Tallahassee and Sunset Tree).
