This is a beautiful album, and fully deserves it's high score. Starting off with world beats mixed with wonderful guitar in a totally uplifting way, it progresses into an emotional journey... track 3 has a clearly Beatlesesque quality to it, mixed with hard drums. Track 5 mixes a circus like riff with crackly vocals, and dare I say reminds me of Manu Chao a little bit.

But I do not like to compare artists and this album is full of variety and surprises. It has helped keep me sane these last few hours and that's no easy feat. The blend of acoustic and electronic sounds is exactly what I like to hear.
