Drowned In A Sea Of Sound

There's this band that I love, called Faunts, and it has been years since they've released something new, so I went on a hunt to find another band like them. I didn't expect last.fm to give me such a wonderful band. The first song that came up was "Release the Kraken" and immediately the guitar and the singer's voice caught my attention. I went on youtube, listening to everything that I could, but I finally decided to buy the album after a few months because I had to own such great music. All the songs on this album are unique and relaxing to listen to. Their style is familiar, yet it feels new. It's weird, but it's one of the perfect albums to just listen to while you lay down and watch the clouds go by. It paints colors in your head, each song having its own feel to it. I guess they really reflect the genre, "dreampop." If you like mellow music that still has strong guitars and drums, or if you're a daydreamer like me, then this is a really great album to have. Any maybe it'll lead you into their other songs. I know I plan to get more of their music!

New, sealed product, so no issues at all. Such a beautiful sounding album. So infatuated with this band. Highly recommended.

This album is one of the best that I've come across in a long time. In my opinion, this CD rates right up there with the best from Chandeen, Love Is Colder Than Death, sToa, and Autumn's Gray Solace, leaning more toward shoegaze than goth in atmosphere. Vocals are mostly a wonderfully harmonizing duet, surrounded by lush soundscapes. It becomes more addictive with each listening, and leaves one longing for more from this artist. Stand-out tracks are "Release the Kraken", "Twilight Bloom", "Summerdreamer" and "Tiger in the Sea". Also check out The Daysleepers' EPs "The Soft Attack" on CD, and "Hide Your Eyes" (downloadable only).

I really love this band, specially this album. It is a beautiful mixture of shoegaze and dreampop. Songs are beautiful, catchy and powerful at the same time. I strongly recommend the vinyl since it sounds very good.

If you like this kind of music then it's impossible not to love this album. Impossible! don't be a jerk

This is some great shoegaze music. Excellent songs, great production, and singers who actually sing. I subtracted one star as some of the lyrics aren't up to the quality of the music, but that's a minor quibble.

Reminds me of The Cure in a way. Beautiful and ethereal.

Great group, wonderful, ethereal sounds that still command a solid rock sound.

I discovered the Daysleepers a few years ago and connected immediately. Being a fan of 90's shoegaze I was so pleased to find a fresh band bringing the sound up to date. It's energising and relaxing all at once! This is a work of love and a must for your collection, however CD's are scarce; vinyl like angels eyelashes. Had to make do with their other releases on download only. I haven't heard much from them lately. I do hope they are still making music!

Great record love it. Really good to mellow out with.

It is a very good album.
