My favorite Fugazi album. "Being both ear-shattering and spine-tingling at once, this is Fugazi at their "musical" best. Incorporating melody with texture and their signature angular approach, the band has raised the bar for themselves and others once again."(unknown source)
Debut release from Bay Area shoegazers LSD and the Search for God. I'm not usually a big fan of shoegaze bands but these guys really put it together. Can't really draw any comparisons except for maybe My Bloody Valentine.
This is IMO The Sea and Cake's best release. Dreamy melodies, breathy vocals, jazzy drumming, and elegant bass make up this critically acclaimed work from Chicago. This is a must have for all you indie kids.
