Oct 6, 2010This is an awesome album to just relax to. I find it hard to judge this album becuase I can't really think whilst listening to it. This is one of those albums that are just meant to be enjoyed.

Jul 19, 2013A relaxing and interesting album. Steady beats hold together the different vocalists floating in and out of these tracks, which are heavy with synths, slap bass, and a distinct 80's mood. "Gaudy Side of Town" is the perfect intro into this album, which of course has a saxophone fluttering in and out. The album centerpiece is "Faded High", which Justin Vernon of Bon Iver shines on.

Dec 14, 2010The results pitch beautifully crafted, poignant songs and heartfelt vocals against foggy, ethereal production.

With a slower pace and dreamier, echo-laden feeling than the original, guitars sounding somewhere between Morricone and the Cocteau Twins, it's an inspired nod back to a still underrated team of artists that works equally well on its own.

This is lush, involving music that takes stated influences and sculpts them into something genuinely there.
