LOVER'S END

Where do I begin? I guess that it is important to state that it is difficult to post an unbiased review for this album simply because my feelings for the album are very strong. Moon Safari's "Lover's End" is easily the finest album of 2010 and, as such, deserves every bit of the five star rating that I am giving it. As far as I am concerned, "Lover's End" is very close to flawless. The musicianship is superb, the vocals, lyrical themes, production, etc. are all top of the line. Whether the band is creating layers of symphonic beauty or moving into an acapella portion of a song, the album flows with perfection and cannot be easily beaten. Overall, the album is beautiful and very near flawless. Honestly, the only two releases this year that rival its beauty are releases by Alcest and Les Discrets. A well earned 5 stars. I cannot wait for their next release.
