Delving deep into the Iron & Wine discography, the 23-track AROUND THE WELL compilation unearths rarities from indie-folk singer-songwriter Sam Beam's considerable catalogue. The first half of the Sub Pop collection focuses on spare, hushed bedroom recordings, many from Beam's formative CREEK DRANK THE CRADLE era--most notably the melancholy, God-fearing "Dearest Forsaken" and the achingly intimate "Sacred Vision." In relative contrast, WELL's latter half showcases Iron & Wine in full-band form, particularly on tracks written for the IN GOOD COMPANY soundtrack--"The Trapeze Swinger," a quietly expansive epic, and previously unissued companion pieces such as the romantic "Belated Promise Ring."

Editorial Reviews
'Communion Cups & Someone's Coat' sports beautifully layered vocals, while 'Belated Promise Ring' holds even with nearly any Iron & Wine album track with its softly ingratiating melody.
Pitchfork

Beam's breathy croon is as soothing as a lullaby....'Love Vigilantes' beats them all, by bringing to the surface New Order's inner Johnny Cash.
Spin

4 stars out of 5 -- AROUND THE WELL is a luxurious collection of 33 rare and hard to find Iron & Wine songs....[With] a fabulous version of The Flaming Lips' 'Waiting On A Superman,' which is delivered with such delicacy it feels as if it could break at any point.
Record Collector

Tracks worth repeated listens include the eloquent, gospel-ish 'The Trapeze Swinger' and the luminous, harmonies-rich shuffle 'God Made the Automobile'...
