I really do not see what everyone is seeing in Beach House. Might have to try again, but there's been no sign of me enjoying this any time soon.

This is one of their weaker efforts, for what it's worth I do think this one specifically is rather overrated.

This is a boring album with pretty textures but mediocre songwriting, check 7 for something darker and more grounded (working more closely with a drummer did that album a lot of favours I think, in both arrangement and songwriting)

experienced chronologically it made sense and made a lot of what followed seem redundant
...but I've had no desire to revisit this other than 'Myth' in years so you might be right
'Teen Dream' is 90% of the Beach House I need really

7, Teen Dream, and Depression Cherry are the keepers from their discog, bar a handful of songs I could take or leave the rest.

I've tried Teen Dream too, which I didn't like either.
Working with a drummer sounds good, if I ever wonder whether I'm missing something by not digging them I'll check 7.

I dunno something about this one just cuts away at me in a way that 'Teen Dream' doesn't.

If 'Teen Dream' was your entry point the rest is good but inessential.
'7' was great considering no one needed more Beach House.
All the other albums are 3 or 4 keeper tunes and dump the rest.
The debut is a bit different and strong in its own way - it sits outside of the rest of the discog really.

I heard 'Devotion' not long after it came out because a friend of mine was hyping it up big and I remember disliking it quite heavily. So by the time 'Teen Dream' came out, I was going into it with a bad mojo. Hadn't listened to anything else until '7' last year, which I liked enough to check out 'Bloom' and 'Depression Cherry'. Loved 'Bloom' right away, instant favorite of theirs. Revisiting their discog this week and it still proves to be true (so far). Though I did come around a bit to 'Teen Dream', it isn't close to 'Bloom' for me.

in terms of setting up blueprints for 'types of songs' they'd use going forward 'Teen Dream' is the one - half the songs that followed are similar to one TD tune or another
at least two songs on this one remind me a lot of 'Norway' etc

7 sucks and this is the best BH

If this had been my first Beach House it’s highly likely I’d agree.
But other than Myth I believe Walk in the Park, Zebra, Used to Be, Norway, 10 Mile Stereo and Take Care are better written and/or more affecting songs than any others on here. Real Love and On the Sea I claim a draw.
My opinion can’t really budge, that album was a biggie for me back in the day.

Half the songs on this either sound like Silver Soul or Norway just with more refined production.
Seems funny after so many follow up albums but I still first think of Beach House as sort of a lo-fi band because of the first three.

“Wild” and “Myth” are the only special songs here which makes listening to this a bummer as those two are frontloaded.
