Beach House
Devotion
(8.4)



Imagine a house. On a beach. At sunset. The waves lapping the shore. The warm air blowing through your sun dress. Yeah, it feels like that. Take your shoes off. Grab a glass of wine. You won't be going anywhere for a while.

Of course, I could be wrong. Allmusic.com writes, "Their music is so lonely, so haunting, that the only beach house it evokes is a deserted one, stranded on a winter night so desolate that summer isn't even a memory."

Maybe it just depends on your mood. But god damn is it good stuff.

Beach House - Gila
