Wye Oak are my favorite band. I've listened to The Knot probably close to a hundred times all the way through since getting it at a show in Atlanta in late March. They're touring with Shearwater now and are spectacular live. Go see them if you can, I Hope You Die alone is worth the price of admission.
BTW, record store clerks ARE snooty. I say this having worked as a snooty record store clerk at Wuxtry's in Decatur, Georgia. By and large, record store clerks are arrogant and superior about music on a regular basis, some of them are even right, but it's a cliche for a reason.
