Suffer gives me goosebumps when the chorus kicks in, A sense of emotional vunerability. A very pretty, dark album. Love it.

L.A.’s Brass Box write deliriously beautiful dreampop songs, with vocal melodies that drift softly through thick guitars.

Undeniable melodies swim up from beneath layers of distortion and effects, making this a psych-pop winner.

They Can Always Hurt You More
by The True Faith
Perfectly dreamy, gloomy goth jams with the cathartic feel of many of the '80s greats from Boston's True Faith.

Better late to the party than never. How did I miss this band? It's a great blend of The Cure during their 'a forest' period and alternative rock. The first track Grandview plunges you into an ocean of psychodelic guitars and rythmic drums and like a siren lures you into the depths. A very accomplished album and although I wouldn't categorize it as Gothic it captures the early spirit of that dusty genre better than most contemporary bands nowadays.
