being a fan of m ward and bright eyes - in particular conor oberst - i was excited when i heard they were collaborating with jim james for monsters of folk. i bought their debut album and was a little underwhelmed with the result. the more i listened to though the more it grew on me, and perhaps unsurprisingly the oberst led tracks became my favourites. top of those is the song map of the world which in it's opening lines articulates, far more eloquently than i can, a big reason why i wanted to go travelling:

green pins where you want to go
white pins where you've been
there isn't even ten
