Clearly, as a songwriter fan, you might get something out of the music of The Mountain Goats. The lead songwriters John Darnielle writes the most detailed stories in his songs. On his older releases his guitar playing is pretty basic, but by the time he got to albums like "The Sunset Tree" he just had his form down. His last major lo-fi effort "All Hail West Texas" is great too, but his guitar playing is very functional and just a means to get the story across. Anyways you might like his stuff maybe. Peace
