Lindsey broke me. When I first heard
Shut Us Down, I couldn't take it. Reminded me too much of the dying Peter Jennings. By the time
UTS came out, I was used to that rasp. Guess he's proven that if you do it long enough, they'll start to like it. Break their will.
I did have an attempt at proselytizing backfire though. I got so many copies of UTS when I bought concert tickets through Ticketmaster that I was giving them away. I had two people give them back to me because they hated his voice. I said, "But aside from his voice, did you like the music?" My boss said, "I couldn't HEAR the music, aside from his voice." This disappointed me, because my boss was a guitar player and I thought if anyone would appreciate
UTS it was him. Lindsey lost himself a convert.
Overall,
OOTC is probably the better album. But I love
Show You How so much that it actually elevates the entire thing for me.
