Title: The album that left me mute.
Review: Saturate Before Using is one of my favorite all time albums, both in it's music and lyrical beauty. I have been playing guitar since I was 10. I started working on writing my own songs right around the time that I first heard this album. The lyrics were so sublime, honest, intimate, powerful and articulate that it sets the bar so high for what songwriting should be that for many years I found myself lyrically mute, feeling like the standard for what truly great songwriting should be was now set almost impossibly high.At the same time the simple paired-down beauty of the music itself reveals that it isn't over-the-top production that make a song great, it's the passion with which it is written.
