I've been digging this album since I first heard it around six months ago. A near perfect psych-rock/folk blend of the old and the new. It sounds old without sounding retro, it sounds familiar without sounding copycat, it sounds new without losing the right vibe.
I have no idea what the lyrics are about but it doesn't matter because the vocals fit into the music beautifully, effortlessly, and just seem to enhance the overall sound and feel of the album. I liked this one so much that I took the time to listen to everything else the band has recorded so far and even bought tickets to see them play a show near me next month. Always a treat to stumble across a new band and be blown away by what I hear.
Not sure if this one is quite a 10 but I think it's pretty damn close, anyway.

9/10
