The Dream Of Yourself

""You May Already Be Dreaming" from, Neva Dinova feels like a distant love away from love, and love within love. The album is a dream beginning with the reflection of oneself, and it produces a thought, "It's so hard to love your body..." It produces a lot of concepts, beginning with that one. After that, you kick back, relax, and enjoy the dreams as you may begin to find yourself dreaming along with the songs too. It is a trip of mellow undertones, relaxation, and a subtle passion hitting your heart with each guitar swoon and vocal line. The seventh track, "She's A Ghost" seems to be a distant day dream of the day something happened, and it hurt your love from the outside in. Simply acting on that to get away as stated in Jake Bellows lyrical line, "Just do what it takes." It ends with a man and his dream. I mean, I could go on and on, but listen to this and you might be feeling the warm fuzz that listening to an old folk or rock record from the 50s or 60s produces, or the 70s folk rock of Neil Young or Crazy Horse. Neva Dinova brings back a classic with a 21st century classic. In my opinion, it is one the best albums of this century. Buy it, and find out for yourself what I mean. -[...]"

"Jake Bellows has a hypnotic voice. He has the ability to make the simplest lines sound infinitely deep with meaning and emotion, and if the music behind the voice matches, it becomes pure magic. Their first Saddle Creek full length was worthy of *the* label and something to be remembered in indie rock circles for years to come. Like many other SC records there is modern sadness here in pretty much every song and its beautiful."
