"&lt;wm:embed type=\"related\"&gt;&lt;/wm:embed&gt;&lt;p&gt;This EP from the prolific, megatalented Conor Oberst is the kind of thing you suspect he could turn out every month or so: one hot single and five relatively good B sides, all from the same sessions that birthed Bright Eyes&amp;apos; forthcoming LP. Soundwise, it&amp;apos;s no great departure from his earlier work. Oberst lays his typically solid melodies and heartfelt croak over both lovely acoustic stuff and rocking backup, including the Crazy Horse guitar attack of &amp;quot;Stray Dog Freedom&amp;quot; and the mishmash of upbeat country and strings on &amp;quot;Tourist Trap.&amp;quot; The standout is the title track, a fiddle-laden romp where Oberst drops agitated spew and abundant catchiness (plus a W.B. Yeats reference). Though ninety-five percent of American songwriters might wish they&amp;apos;d written any of the other five songs, they&amp;apos;re Oberst&amp;apos;s B sides for a reason &amp;#x2014; hopefully because he&amp;apos;s saved the killer stuff for the full-length.&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
