De vez en cuando nos pasa que oímos un disco que de primeras no nos convence, sin embargo, hay algo que tiene que nos impulsa a darle una segunda, tercera y hasta cuarta oportunidad, hasta que de repente el brillo surge y se nos hace encantador. Esto me sucedió con el cuarto trabajo del dúo de Baltimore Beach House . Con el peso mediático que obtuvieron con su anterior álbum Teen dream (Sub Pop, 2010), costaba esfuerzo siquiera nivelar con lo nuevo que harían. Pero aunque la mayoría de las críticas de la prensa consideran [...]

On Bloom , Beach House does what they do best and continues to pen some of the best dream pop tunes out there today. WATCH THE REVIVEW

Beach House waltzed into the limelight when their Cocteau-flavoured, dream-state pop reached saturation point on Teen Dream . It was a blissful set of sweet nothings that had us all swooning with delight. This was the realisation of all that had come before. So on hearing Bloom you may initially feel as if the Baltimore duo are playing it safe. This does, after all, feel like an all too healthy replica of Teen Dream . The reverb-glistening, lilting pop songs are delivered like a warm embrace via the richly served synthlines, Alex Scully's carefully [...]

Rating: 3.5 out of 5 stars Let's face it, there's no one out there crafting music just like Beach House .  That is, except Beach House .  Seems redundant doesn't it? Well, if you're looking for a fault on the band's fourth LP, then it might be that the group seems a bit cornered on Bloom .  While the music itself is beautifully emotional, it's not too far from where they left off with Teen Dream ; that's going [...]

• Beach House - Myth

Maybe we're still heading into a dream through Beach House' s track "Gila", but "Myth" could be the next transcending worlds track for your late-night slumber.  Something about the lull of the guitar from the high to low chords in a very easygoing fashion has me seeing stars as I float in a balloon over the ocean.  Okay, so my daydreaming isn't your exact ticket, but Alex Scally and Victoria Legrand certainly captured the magic that keeps their carefree music so timeless. Bloom , the duo's fourth album, is set to release [...]

Album Review: Indie dream pop group Beach House once again have created a record that stays in its lane of expectations but swells up and beyond any type of ceiling you may think exists. Bloom is the groups fourth long [...]

Victoria Legrand and Alex Scally of Beach House have been redefining their own brand surreal, flip-flop-gazing art/pop over the course of three albums including '09's breakout Teen Dream . New Bloom (May 15, Sub Pop) continues the dreamy soundscapes with Legrand, the niece of legendary French composer Michel Legrand, and Scally taking us by the hand and leading us through celestial, chiming guitars, dense electronic atmospherics and hymnlike vocal harmonies for a stately sound that touched both Pet Sounds and Cocteau Twins. The duo, who shared co-production duties [...]
