honestly 7 perfectly honed in on the best parts of DC and TYLS and brought them wide-screen - their best since Bloom

Update: this sounds amazing on vinyl.
Even songs like “lose your smile” which didn’t really catch my attention the first time around has won me. Woo and Drunk in LA sound warmer?

I think they’re a singles band

i feel empty inside because i assumed it would be a grower for me but it doesn't seem to be growing. however, i initially felt the same about depresso cherry and thank your lucky starz, and then after revisiting them long after release i eventually grew to love them. so maybe i'll just wait a year or two.

It's the same ebb and flow for me and Beach House were I will intensely love an album for a short period of time, not care about it for several months, see years, and go back it and love it even more.

Sparks was so good when it came out ; DC didn’t get any better than that

levitation is probably the best dream pop song of all time so it does get a bit better

They’re neither a singles or an album band. They work in small doses.

Dunno I love all their records and listened to 7 religiously. Sure sometimes a break is needed but this is an albums babs

One of the most straight-up rock songs they've done.

I saw Beach House and My Bloody Valentine at the same venue, within a month of each other, this year. Both were loud, dreamy, and had spectacularly colorful animated projections. With this song, Beach House have more or less turned into MBV. So I want them to form a supergroup now, even though both groups seem sort of insular and might just cancel each other out.

Something’s coming on Monday? I’m thinking either a live album, or *maybe* a surprise new release like TYLS? (probably wishful thinking)
