There's a standard and deluxe version of the album. I don't have the tracklist in front of me right now, but I think the deluxe version has demo versions of some of the songs. Target will have an exclusive version with a few other bonus tracks.

It's pretty good. These were all rejects from The Carpenter.

I thought it was very strong. I think I like the new one even better.

No Paul Newman vs The Demons is one plus in it's favor.

Loved 'The Carpenter'...have enjoyed the first two songs I've listened to so far.

The first song is epic just like the first song on The Carpenter.

Re: The Avett Brothers 'Magpie And The Dandelion'

Have listened to this album probably 10 times the last few days. Love it almost as much as 'The Carpenter'; 'Open Ended Life' is a fantastic song, although the way that song is mixed is a little odd to me (the harmonica just really seems to cut through everything else when it fires up).

Otherwise, great effort (again) from these guys.
