I've been a bit hush, thus far, about Beach House's newest release "Teen Dream". The truth is I feel an odd possessiveness for Beach House. I saw them many years ago when they were touring on their eponymous album and instantly fell deeply in love. Their music fills my heart beyond the point of breaking, track by track, again and again. And still I can't get enough. This makes it hard for me to discuss the band and their music with the casual listener or the half-hearted newcomer. It's a bit of a Muriel and Seymour situation, though I somehow stand on both sides of the inequality. But the moral of the story is that the new album is incredible, though to absolutely no surprise. It makes my heart soar, and crush; leap and implode.
