Andrew Bird – See the Enemy

bird Andrew Bird   See the EnemyI’ve been rehashing all the albums I have amassed over the past 10 months or so for our impending Best of 2009 list, and so I’ve been back enjoying Andrew Bird.  His January release, Noble Beast Andrew Bird   See the Enemy, is still excellent, not surprisingly.  I’ve also been listening to the reworked versions that were released as a part of his Fitz and The Dizzyspells Andrew Bird   See the Enemy EP that was issued in May.

“Anonanimal” was my favorite off the album, so it’s not really a surprise that it’s simpler reworking – re-titled “See the Enemy” on the EP – is my favorite from the EP as well.  The soaring strings of the original are replaced by plucked ones, the lyrics are slowed and reorganized.  And you know, it sounds equally as fantastic.
