Dear Science is the Winner



Upon listening to both albums, 2 very distinct flavors came into my mouth.
Beach House - Teen Dream: Sesame Bagel
TV on the Radio - Dear Science: Pop Rocks

You can all probably then conjure up those tastes to recognize what I think of both;
Teen Dream is familiar and somewhat wholesome, lacking surprise and kick.
Dear Science is edgy in concept, major key uplifts with dissolving moments and head bang 'n whip good.

  1. Hi-

    Obviously, I would have gone the other way with this one...in a pop rocks world, a brother needs a little sesame bagel to get through the day...re: beach house: I love victoria legrand's singing voice...anyhoo...onward w/tv on the radio...

  3. All week I have been thinking that I like TV on the Radio better than Beach House, but I like sesame bagels better than pop rocks. This has inspired a crisis of epic proportions.
