As the Eternal Cowboy is my favorite record of theirs (though they have a lot of good ones). It's a good in-between from their more raw, chaotic early sound to the more produced sound of later records.

This is one of the reasons I love Tiny Desk. It's easy to be confronted by an act like this and go "what the heck is this" but if you give them a chance, almost everything on Tiny Desk grows on you and has an interesting story behind it. I've got into so many acts who'd usually be way off my radar from here, a bit like with John Peel back in the day.
