Washed Out, Neon Indian, Small Black, Yacht, Yeosayer -- were the soundtrack for life in the bubble of Obama's blue America, especially on t..."  [+]  Reply

"Bought this because of a Rolling Stone review. It ended being one of my favorites. "Fade Away" should've been a hit single, and the rest of the CD is just as outstanding. Even after all this time, it still sounds great."  Reply
