  • Listen: • Beach Fossils // "Care...
    While the dreamy, guitar-driven indie pop of Beach Fossils wasn't impressing me when the band's music blew up on the blog-o-sphere several years ago, Clash The Truth is proof that some sounds just need time to develop.
    What did you think of this album? Love it? Hate it? Why? What should I review next, eh?

      true that, the demo is far more immersive.

    If your least favourite track is Sleep Apnea and your reasoning is that it's a good song but you wish it was longer, then that's saying something about the album.
    It happens to be my favourite track

    Really loved this album. Its just a feel good band that takes me to a land where running on a beach with my friends, or on an awesome road trip in the prime of my life. The album really drives forward song after song. I bought this album based on this review and haven't even listened to any of my other purchases because this is on REPEAT.

    I really enjoy BF first album and their EP. Their EP is probably my favorite of their work so far!
    When I first got this album it kinda disappointment me. Maybe because I was so used to that dreamy sound that you describe. CTT is not the album I automatically go to yet, but I'm easing myself into it little by little.

  • @MysticalMastodon
    @MysticalMastodon 11 років тому +2

    I guess I just miss that Vacation and Lazy Day feel. It's just so carefree and light; it's such a small sound, so personal and tight. Beach Fossils (album) is integrated into my DreamPop faves playlist. I don't know if CT-171 will clash well. It's kind of like iamamiwhoami: great effort, but so different.

  • @EclecticoIconoclasta
    @EclecticoIconoclasta 11 років тому +2

    Anthony. In the end dream pop, just as any other genre has good and bad music. not everyone in this genre is Mazzy Star or Cocteau Twins or Slowdive or My bloody valentine or The Church. As a fan of this style i can say it is good that you can recognize when an album of this genre is good just as you did with the latest Wild Nothing album even if you say you don´t enjoy this style

    This is the kind of band i have been looking for all my life!That sound is exactly what I have always wanted to find!The vocals have this echoey feel to them,and the opening track reminds me abit of the smiths.The bass is very significant,and the guitar melodies are a bit jangly,but the songs are fast and fun.I am so glad you said Joy division,because them too,and that's the type of sound I've always wanted from a new band.I have to give it a 9.Great album!

  • @GhosFare
    @GhosFare 11 років тому

    Honestly, how you can differentiate this between a DIIV/Lotus Plaza is beyond me. I had high hopes for this album coming from their debut and a really great EP, but 3 drones and a track called "Sleep Apnea," this album is a real snoozer. *Goes back to listening to Ride*

  • @MysticalMastodon
    @MysticalMastodon 11 років тому

    I had just purchased their freshman album last week. After the first listen, I knew that this was going to be a band that I like. However, Clash the Truth isn't fully there for me. It's a departure from the sound of their first album. I still like it, especially Modern Holliday and Shallow, but when Beach came out with Bloom, a new sound to them, I didn't freak out. All the songs were really great. CT-171 is interesting, but it hasn't settled with me yet. Maybe I just need more plays.

    No, I know Beach House released Bloom. I was comparing the fact that Bloom is a different sound for Beach House, but it was still eargasmic to me. I like Clash the Truth.

  • @stevenharrisburg

    I would have to agree, I get really tired of all of the dream pop music in this style. But I really dig this album, especially the 2nd song on the album. The drum build ups were very nice.

  • @DylanHughesPhotoVideo
    @DylanHughesPhotoVideo 11 років тому

    This album was actually a disappointment to me, because they changed their sound. I miss the reverb, and the even more simple and similar sounding songs. At first i thought they did sound too similar and boring, but after listening to them enough times i noticed something special about each one and pretty much fell in love with the sound. Its different now. Dont get me wrong i still enjoy a few songs off this one, it is a more mature sound, and it probably will appeal to a larger audience.

    I thought it was interesting that you didn't say anything about the lyrics in your review.
    For me, the lyrics felt so weak that it took a lot away from the album.
    Their sound is dreamy and layered, which I like, but those mindless lyrics ruin it for me.
