The Life and Times of William Shakespeare - Secrets Don't Make Friends (and, Apparently, I Don't Either)

Alright, check this, in my 14 year old life I would visit this shitty website called 4chan a lot (you should be able to tell), of course I would be drawn to the music section, /mu/. During my stay at /mu/ I mostly became a giant fucking basement dweller, but I also met some pretty sweet ass music maker men. Among them, and a stand out, was The Life and Times of William Shakespeare. This guy was some neo-folk bro who sang about relationships and shit. Sounds lame? Yeah, I know, but guess what, it fucking rocks. The songwriting abilities of this guy is enviable. As you might have imagined, for the most part it's based on this dude singing with an acoustic guitar. Keyboards, electric guitar, harmonica and other stuff I don't remember all come in to add to the feeling, it's not like some kid recording just him playing guitar in one take. All in all I would suggest you download this now (he has it up for free, I'll give you the link later) and listen to it. I would say I enjoy it best while laying in bed about to sleep. Driving around in a very quit part of town while playing this would also be quite nice.

Tired by Cameron Clarke

So there is this chillbro who used to be fat, have long hair and make comedy psych-folk as White Guys Jumping. Now a days he is not so fat, cut his hair and makes progressive synth-folk. Tired is his first album in this era of new, beautiful prog (though he's got a new one out soon, I actually play on it, I got pretty tight connections). Tired is a concept album or some other thing like that (song cycle?) about these nightmares he would have. The story starts with him trying to kill himself by going out to sea and drowning, he ends up washing up on a beach, travels across a desert, ends up home, escapes some hospital, other shit. The music is usually acoustic based with synths added in along with other instrumentation at points. It's a bit of a grower I think, so I suggest listening to it a couple of times before putting a final opinion upon it.
