Metals: Going For The Gold

Bright Eyes: Going for the Gold

[purchase]

Musical Wunderkind, Conor Oberst of Bright Eyes, has been composing music since he was 13 years old. He has been extremely prolific in his career, releasing no fewer than 22 albums under various band names before his 30th birthday, and that doesn't even count the many guest appearances & singles that he's released during that same time period. Oberst is also a co-founding member of Saddlecreek Records, which now boasts a few bands that have been heard of outside of Omaha (e.g., Smashmouth, Rilo Kelly, Neva Dinova, and others).

Going for the Gold is a really great song, from an album that collects songs from four artists. It's worth checking out.
