Julia Holter wins, 21 - 10.

Listened to Shepard's Dog and Our Endless Numbered Days before; I enjoyed them but they don't hold next to Holter's three albums thus far

Sam Beam's music is beautiful, the perfect accompaniment for relaxing in any way. Sure he doesn't set the world on fire with inventiveness, but that's not his intention. He's simply in the business of writing the greatest indie folk known to man. Just kick back and enjoy it.

And while I do agree that his last two albums may have been small steps back, where can you really go when you've achieved perfection 3 times over?

Loud City Song = an all-time top 10 album.

This one is difficult for me, because I enjoy listening to Iron & Wine more, but I think Julia Holter would deserve to move to the next level more than Iron & Wine.

Julia Holter.

Holter may be hotter, but Iron & Wine's still better.

Sam Beam. Because... I'm more familiar and I like more his music.

If this were around the time of The Shepard's Dog release my opinion might be a little different (though Holter obv didn't have an album out yet), but while I loved Creek and Shepard's Dog not much else has clicked and his past albums felt either directionless or trite. With just three releases though Julia Holter has improved beautifully with each album, and Loud City Song is something truly special. Since this is 2014, not 2007, Im going with Holter without hesitation.

Holter makes fantastic, sprawling music, Iron and Wine just feels very safe, and similar to dozens of other artists.

Holter is just getting started. i think she'll continue to improve, and she's already gone beyond Sam Bam.

Iron and Wine's first album is fine, but most of his other stuff I find pretty dead. I've only heard Loud City Song from Holter, but I think that album is fantastic and I'd take it over the entire Iron and Wine discography.

I think Iron and Wine's music is boringly predictable.

I feel Holter's music is merely unengaging, it's just kinda there.

So Holter it is, for giving me a little less boredom.

Iron & Wine

Julia is pretty good, but Sam delivers highs that she's yet to touch.

Both artists are fine but not much more for me. If I had to be stuck on an island with only one of their discographies though it would be Holter, so my vote goes to her.
