I go back and forth between this and Bloom, it's a close one for me

Album Rating: 3.5

anyone else sometimes feel like devotion is their best?

Album Rating: 5.0

I like a few tracks from that era but it doesn't tickle my pickle like pretty much everything post-Devotion.



Also, I will never understand how the average for this isn't as high as Teen Dream or Bloom's. Just doesn't make any fucking sense, this is as good if not better. Seems like there's only a small group of fans who love this album to bits like I do. Oh welllllll

Album Rating: 3.5

well they hit it big with bloom, right? so maybe a lot of their listeners were hoping for more upbeat poppy records and instead got this down tempo shoegazey direction

Devotion is major weak sauce imo. Though I should really revisit it (and finally listen to their debut) before the new one comes out.

For me it’s really all about this album and Teen Dream, the rest of their discog can kinda fuck off. Bloom is good I guess but I almost never listen to it.

Album Rating: 4.1

^^^^this is the correct opinion. Lazuli is oddly my favorite Beach House song with the exception of maybe Levitation but don't really listen to Bloom in general

Album Rating: 5.0

never attended a listening party for an album in my life but a local record store is playing 7 on saturday and i'm for suuure going



bloom and teen dream are both good but both lack the ~magic~ this has

Oooo damn I'm so jealous of that listening party, I LOVE the singles for 7 so far

Album Rating: 5.0

I don’t get the hype for the singles, all three are like 3/5 tunes so I’m expecting a 2.5-3 for the full album.

Album Rating: 3.0

It better not be worse than this one, all I ask

Album Rating: 5.0

Oh it’s not a question of whether it will be weaker than this but of how much weaker it will be.

Band are locked in a downward trajectory for me then.



Still think they should have edited down and combined the best song writing from this and lucky stars - would have been a 4-4.5 for me

Album Rating: 5.0

Disagreed, every song here is better than every song on TYLS, they judged the best songs correctly and this is the 4.5

Album Rating: 5.0

idk the singles are so good, esp dark spring. this is a hard 4.5 and i'm expecting 7 to be a solid 4

Album Rating: 3.0

Boney, I’m not sure - ‘The Traveller’ and ‘Elegy to the Void’ would both be top 5 here for me, maybe top 3



‘Teen Dream’ has six or seven tunes I prefer to any of the songs on this or ‘Lucky Stars’ though

Album Rating: 3.5

yeah traveler and elegy are both fantastic standouts.

Album Rating: 5.0

Ok, Elegy might rank alongside the bottom 3 here but that's it imo

Elegy is so incredible but I think TYLS is pretty weak otherwise
