Devotion

Indeed, no one should complain if Devotion turns out to be the best of Beach House, but few will be surprised if they continue to get even better.

In Devotion, Beach House have created as profound an invocation of the sacred and the sentimental as you’re ever likely to hear.

Beach House's songwriting hasn't fundamentally changed on their second record; they've simply cleaned up their sound, resulting in crisper, brighter, bolder songs that retain the Baltimore dream-pop duo's melodic sense and vibe of elegant decay.
