5.0 out of 5 stars Simply beautiful, July 11, 2004

This album by itself can be portrayed as an almost living personification of what relaxing and hypnotic music has to offer. Through such tracks as "Will the Real Danny Radnor Please Stand?" and "New Drifters," the bands almost, dare i say, sweeps you off your feet through un-sophisticated melodies which ultimately lead you into a state of unwinding and simplicity. To most of credulous pop listining Britney Spears fanatics, the songs placed on this album may seem repetative or in a sence tedious, however through such supposed redundancy relaxation is effortless and therefore natural.

5.0 out of 5 stars "The Golden Band" Indeed., December 13, 2002

This is the album I've always wanted. It's so quiet that sometimes I can't even tell that it's playing (especially on Will The Real Danny Radnor Please Stand?). It's the type of album you can crank up really loud and still not bother anyone. It has a nice confluence with every track more or less running into one another and the repetitive melodies never wear on my patience, along with the droning hum from the keyboards. A Good Friend Is Always Around is brilliant and the 4 part New Drifters is a nice mini-masterpiece. I've never heard an album like this before and I probably won't hear another one, which leaves this album a pure gem. I recommend this to anyone who loves to be hynotized by sound.

Yes....Yes....Yes..... and yet again Yes.....buy it without question if you're into anything that they have graced the indie scene with. Like every other release from the AAS this cd is a must own for too many reasons to list. They are in a class of their own & their melow mood altering sound is just too cool. The only problem is once you hear them you want everything.
