missed this. would have voted ocean beach, probably, or rollercoaster. ghosts is great but those albums meant more to me when they came out. but I do think that duk koo kim is one of his greatest songs.

I missed this. Would have been stuck between Ghosts and Bridge, and voted the latter to make sure it didn't get a goose egg. Ivo did a great job making a mixtape with Retrospective too.

...and somehow resisting the urge to call it "Redrospective"!

the original title was red perspective iirc but changed due to lameness

Mark Kozelek should write a ten-minute lament about how few people voted in this thread! Sheesh, what gives?!
i often weigh in on poll threads that are of interest of me, but then completely forget to vote. pretty sure this was one of those instances.
anyways, surprised that ppl like ocean beach so much. i think it's arguably his weakest?
april is underrated prolly. good record, that imo

april seems like a refinement of what he was going for on old ramon. just long enveloping, repeating things. would've voted for either record, but i think i prefer april. both are tangled up in times of not-great-life

The new Desertshore album is pretty much a Red House Painters joint.
