this album is really good of course

Its good, but I feel like it works much better in small doses because its all pretty one note.

There's way less variety across the album in terms of the songwriting than there was across her run of singles/EPs over the last year. Or maybe I just like the songs less and it's making the flaws of her approach more apparent to me.

I've already heard it!
record isn't anything daring or innovative, but it's enjoyable! Cosentino's vocals remind me of Jenny Lewis's, which isn't a bad thing. also, I love the fact that it's just over a half hour. wish more records were― ksh, Sunday, July 11, 2010 10:37 PM (2 weeks ago)

Fitzmaurice's review is solid, will go read the Dusted one too

Dusted review is terrible
― markers, Tuesday, 27 July 2010 05:37 (fifteen years ago)
haha, in general, i kind of like dusted magazine. they review a lot of interesting stuff (lots of soundways discs, for instance).
but yeah, that review, in particular, was unimpressive.

If the difference between Best Coast and hazed-out pop revivalists like The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, Crystal Stilts, and Vivian Girls is one of degree, not of kind, then Best Coast have gone past pleasant nostalgia into some kind of mega-pointless, post-post-grunge echo chamber.
like, what in the world is this? "post-post-grunge echo chamber"?
― markers, Tuesday, 27 July 2010 05:41 (fifteen years ago)
OK I haven't heard the album yet, but absolutely nothing I've previously heard by Best Coast sounds anything like Belly!

All I can think about after that Dusted review is my cat talking. It'd probably be pretty awesome at first, but get annoying as hell really quickly.

Avenged Sevenfold isn't the only SoCal group to post an impressive showing on this week's sales chart. Retro-pop act Best Coast, the indie faves of the moment, enter at No. 36 with "Crazy for You," an album that sold 10,000 copies in its debut week. The buzz on Best Coast's '50's-meets-Ramones-inspired sound began at the South by Southwest conference in Austin, Texas, in March, and has only increased in the weeks since.
The 10,000 copies sold is more than respectable, and in line with other hotly tipped indie acts. Joanna Newsom, for instance, who recently performed a critically adored show at the Orpheum, opened with about 7,000 copies sold of her "Have One on Me" earlier this year.

lol from that same billboard reportTrouble, however, could be in for M.I.A.'s "MAYA." Though the aggressiveness of the effort rewards after repeated listens, it's falling swiftly, resting at No. 66 after just three weeks, and totaling 46,000 copies sold.
