If you ever start listening to chillwave washed out is the way to go this album or rather this amazing construction of art is by far the best summer album so far (and summer started some weeks ago so strokes and monkeys are spring releases) if you want a summer album here you go its perfect for anything happening in the summer.
1. Eyes be closed: when I hear this song I pictures time passing quickly like in a nature film recording video of night and day at a mountain. The drum machine is a complement to all the synth. The vocals complement the drums and synth. This is one of the best album openers I've heard.
2. Echoes: the echo and reverb are aligned at just the right level to sound good with the vocals and clapping. The transitions are great really thought through. The synth is a good "background" beat. You can hear all the sounds and transitions crystal clear.
3. Amor fati: this sounds so much like blackbird blackbird that I'm gonna guess he picked up some tips from him. Very catchy vocals nice and echoed very nice track its free on washed out's MySpace I believe.
4. Soft: loooong begging but well worth the wait when the beat starts its catchy, moody, and soft like the song title. Vocals are amazing as usual.
5. Far away: its sad. Very cold in the beginning and it stays that way too.
6. Before: my favorite song on here. Why? Because not only is it catchy but there is a blip of someone saying "f*** it/you" or something along those lines. I'm not saying I like that line its just the way its delivered. Its quick and its fast.
7. You and I: "looop loop looop loop looop loop" beginning starts with him say a line and looping it the beat starts and he starts singing but it keeps looping. Nice touch amazing feat. He pulled off looping his Voice and in a grand way.
8. Within and without: title tracks usually either are really good or a terrible and crappy. This is not the case here I think its a good balance of good sounds a sucky sounds.
9. Is this normal piano I'm hearing? Vocals without filters? I think I am hearing this. Disbelief I say! Oh wait here comes the synth... and the drums... and the vocal filter. Wow did I just witness a transition of epicness from normal instruments to the usual synth filter drum machine? I think I did.
Great album, great chillewave band, I like. best of 2011 written allover this album. What do you think do you agree? If you like blackbird blackbird, small black, Tori y moi, and neon Indian this album is for you.
