The critically acclaimed Beach House have a new album that came out yesterday. After having a day to soak it in, I am starting to question why they are so effing critically acclaimed! Sure the album is good, listenable, and the vocals are nice. But I would not say this is the best band or album. I think I would agree with Pitchfork in naming Beach House as one of the better bands, but by far not number one. Not even top ten. One of my fav songs off of the album is Gila. The song is pretty slow, and has some really cool vocal backings.
