I've been meaning to check these guys out. I assume Citrus would be what I should start out with then?

Probably your best bet...though I warn you, you will probably get stuck on the first 5 songs or so before you actually are able to finish the album. So far it seems that is what happens to everyone, myself included.

Yeah I find myself doing that for some albums too. It almost is a bad thing in the sense that you never experience the whole album because you are always so caught up in those few songs. Or when I am listening to an album and just end up skipping some songs to get to a certain favorite of mine.

Yeah so after giving Citrus a couple listens, I am already hooked.

Is there self titled album any good? I have already read your guys opinions on Hush, and with that it seems like it is a hit or miss.

Citrus is a great album.
I'd give a listen to Hush if I were you though, it's different.
I haven't given it many listens, but it might grow on me when I do.

Depends what you liked about Citrus, I guess. The shoegaze side of it was great, but I also love straight dream pop and I think they do it masterfully on Hush.

I think people expect songs that are just gonna hit you in the face, but Hush isn't about that. It is very subdued.

See, I like the dream pop more than the shoegaze too so yeah if what you say is true, although it is your opinion of the album, I am sure I will like it.

Has anyone checked out their acoustic album Rewolf? It has new versions of older songs and a few originals tossed in for good measure. I have to say, they did a great job with it. I actually prefer the acoustic version of New Years over the original.

The Fascinating Turnip · 03-08-2010, 05:00 PM

New Years is a great song, and that version is pretty cool.
I feel Hush might be slowly growing on me...I think i'll focus on it until the end of the week, see what happens.

Can someone help me out and upload Hush please? I really want to listen to it. =D
