I know I’m supposed to like this. I’m a member of the “indie” crowd and as such, I am obligated to like this. But I can’t lie – this is not my favorite. It may just be the old age or the fact that we’ve just seen way too much of this – and by “this” I mean Beach House’s sound. Sure “Norway” is a decent song and was played EVERYWHERE and sure the album sounds pretty and flows well but it’s just too late for me. Had this album come out a couple years ago, sure I might have really enjoyed it but not now and not in 2010 with 1,000 other bands putting out the same album every couple of weeks. Who knows though, it may grow on me. I’m not counting Beach House out and I’m not saying the album isn’t worth a listen. I am saying that maybe before you check this out you only listen to Faction on XM and don’t talk to any Hipsters for a couple weeks.
