I'm not going to lie, I think that everything Nick Thorburn does is great. While you could then take this with a grain of salt, it doesn't mean I am wrong. In fact, I'm not. I Am an Attic is at times wacky, ethereal, or stochastic. All the while it still has the very Thorburnian quality of showing the listener a thoughtful significance to each song. These songs are stories. You'd be silly to not give this album a listen.
