i think we've already discussed this

BUT beach house. beach. freaking. house. the new album is unbelievable. thanks to a scalper, i was able to attend their sold-out show at neumos. i was contemplating not spending the money to see them again, but i'm so glad i did. (they've come a long way since last year's showing at chop suey where i walked in at 10pm and was able to buy a ticket at the door.) i'm practically speechless about the performance but, as usual, it was magnificent. strong, steady beats sweetly overlapped victoria's bellowing alto. i must say, it was quite the tinglefest. listen, it's magical.



p.s.- dear boys talking very loudly during the performance: NEVER utter a word during one of their shows again. i will kick you.
