Stuck in a time warp...and i love it.

"i make no apologies: i ADORE this album. it probably makes my top five of all-time. this review isn't very objective, but who cares.
i listen to 'suburban light' and i'm instantly transported to london, circa fall 1965. i'm walking arm-in-arm with someone resembling adriana lima and she's wearing go-go boots.
the clientele is all about mood and aesthetics: honey-colored skies, autumn leaves, foggy mornings, purple twiglights and buttery dawns; drowned out vocals, guitar pedals, studio effects and atmospherics, and you get the feeling that's just the way they planned it.
this is the album you listen to while you fall in love with your boyfriend/girlfriend.
this is the album you listen to while driving a pounding rainstorm.
this is the album you listen to while sitting on the beach with your best mates.
this is the album you listen to while driving through new england in the fall.
this is the album you listen to while you're stuck in your cubicle late on friday night working for someone who makes a helluva lot more money than you do.
trust me. buy it. live it. love it."

"I have to say that I have recently been obsessed with this band. Once the music from any of the songs start, I am completely relaxed and my mind wanders into an ethereal state. The songs do sound similar but they provide a continuum of this peaceful state."
Beautiful

"Like being in NYC/London on a gloomy, rainy day as you're pining over unrequited love in a cafe. See also Vitesse and Galaxe 500"
