The only way to describe this album is "indescribable".

Of the entire collection, one song will forever stick in my mind. "Such Great Heights" was introduced to me by my ex, along with several other songs from the album. Though they were difficult to hear over the rumble of the car's ragged engine, I got a sense of the album's pop-electric-indie ambiance which still haunts me.
"When you are out there on the road..."

The chorus makes me think of flying high above the earth with the one you love, above the troubles where "everything looks perfect from far away." The middle "break-down" is perfectly spaced and wonderfully blended. This song encompasses all moods, from wistful, to happy, to hurting, to love.

This song blends wonderfully into the ... Read More

I got this single for two reasons. First, I had a gift card that was expiring, so I started searching for a CD I could buy for under $7 including shipping. Second, I'd heard this song in many places and already liked it. So I decided to support the group and buy the single.

It shouldn't be a surprise, then, that I like the song. What was surprising to me, though, is that track 4 is the cover by Iron and Wine - which I'd heard on commercials and also liked, but didn't know who had performed. So the purchase turned out to have a bonus component.

Music : Give Up
"Give Up" by the Postal Service is one of those albums you would never sit down and describe as the the kind of music that you prefer to listen to. That's because this music in unlike anything you've heard before.

I came across this CD when a friend recommended it to me based on my interest in Death Cab for Cutie. I am thankful I have that friend.

The songs are expertly crafted. The arrangements are complex but accessible. The lyrics are heartfelt and sincere. Overall it's just a damn good CD.

My favorites are "The District Sleeps Alone Tonight," "Nothing Better," and "Recycled Air" (a gem of a tune, with a subject so simple, yet the song seems so deep).

I would recommend this to anyone who like's good, solid, trance-like/trance-enducing music that is brimming ... Read More
