iTunes lists the genre of this album as "Unclassifiable," which is probably someone's idea of a joke, because this album is completely straight forward dreamy post-rock / piano rock. The album sounds a lot like what Coldplay, Radiohead, and Sigur Ros would sound like if you dumped them in a blender. The only fast track is 2. No FCC's

1 (8:20) Violin and piano accompany the guitar and drums with a sort of soundtrack instrumental-- altogether pleasant.

2 (5:49) Spaced-out guitar tears through a few distorted retro solos. A cross between Oasis and Radiohead.

3 (4:57) Ghostly femme vocals glide over slow piano playing.

4 (7:37) Soft spacey guitar with ambient electronica sounds right off a Sigur Ros album with a garnish of banjo.

5 (4:01) Slow, wailing rock with tamborine

6 (10:02) Soft piano melody. Would make a great soundtrack.

7 (4:52) Very distant vocals with a persistent melody.

8 (6:24) A simple piano melody.
