"This album appeared to me out of nowhere and I love it. I like shoegaze. I'm not sure why but the sound, the atmosphere it creates, it's all so comforting. And yet at times it can be terrifying. The duo of Dan Barrett(Giles Corey) and Tim Macuga makes for a thrilling adventure from beginning to e..." [+] Reply

"This is one of the first albums that got me into folk and indie music. Even if I don't love it now, it was pretty important to me. Some of the songs, however, are bona fide classics for sure." Reply

"The only thing that holds this back from being a 100, because this album might otherwise be perfect, are "Barry Bonds" and "Drunk and Hot Girls." Just misusing Mos Def like that? Come on, Kanye.

"This album is totally exuberant; pitting together Baroque, Psych Folk and Chamber Pop to create something of complete beauty. It took me awhile to come around on it but now I'm obsessed with it." Reply
