Manchester Orchestra - I'm Like A Virgin Losing A Child


This is Manchester Orchestra's first full length album, which came out in 2006. They kinda blew up in popularity last year with the release of "Mean Everything to Nothing", got a lot of radio play. Their first album kicks ass. It's a bit more of a pop sound than their latest album.

A lot of the melodies and themes from "Mean Everything to Nothing" are similar to this album. Listening to this album is almost like listening to their newest one if it were done in more of a rock sense. So if you like that one you'll love this.

Tracks to check out include "Now That You're Home", "I Can Feel Your pain" is one of those heart wrenching soft, intimate acoustic songs. "Where Have You Been" is another great song, really good build ups full of synth choir voices. "Don't Let Them See You Cry" and "Colly Strings" round out the album nicely.

1. Wolves at Night
2. Now That You're Home

4. I can Feel Your Pain

7. Sleeper 1972
