"They Spent Their Wild Youthful Days in the Glittering World of the Salons" by The Swirlies.

The first Gold Nugget! This album is very good. Creative and accessible, only the slightly tinny production holds it back. Silky vocals adorn the clean soundscapes, intermixed with bursts of chunky dirt. Without coming across as intentionally "indie", the band refuses to be ordinary. It takes guts and talent to achieve this with the seemingly effortless grace they display here. Their dynamics vary greatly, but they never lose sight of the album's common thread: complicated, tight writing inside cunningly likeable songs. There's a theme here that almost every artist under the radar shoots for. Most fall short, but it's because of their impure motives. Witness total honesty: http://music.yahoo.com/track/1157342
