"Not a very original album for the post-punk genre. There are traces of Joy Division, Interpol, Wire, The Strokes, and even some Stooges thrown all over the record. But anyway, not every album has to be a groundbreaking milestone of some kind, right? The songs are raw-sounding and pretty well-writ..."  [+]  Reply

"I think I like Atlas Sound even better than Deerhunter, but then I listen to Deerhunter and the opposite is true. Two great bands who prove to me that even when I reach my nineties there will almost still be great new bands out there to discover."  Reply

"Family first album "Music In A Doll's House" is one of the albums, which must not be ignored.

The group's original line-up include..."  [+]  Reply
