I highly frown upon buying downloadable music. The quality of each song is at most 1/4 of a CD track, there's no booklet, or box, or love. Vinyl is my preferred medium because it contains the entire waveform of the album. Nothing is clipped. CDs on the other hand are (at least modern CDs) very compressed and clipped to sound better with typical headphones and car speakers. It lacks the dynamic range. But hell, sometimes I need something portable without putting in the effort of ripping my own vinyl. I digress...

"If these walls could talk" is the premise of this album. According to Wikipedia each song is a different story. The ones about houses are told from the house's perspective. Each song sounds the same yet not the same. They blend well but it doesn't get boring and you'll hardly notice when the CD jumps back to the beginning to play through once more. This is more of a basking album than a participation album. So don't expect to be singing along much. Instead just take a deep breath and let this dew drop soundscape envelop your being. While this is a basking album, it is not a basking in the sun album. In fact it is not very enjoyable during the day, especially when it's hot out! Once the sun goes down though, it makes for epic night adventure driving music. It just makes you feel good! It pumps you up while calming your nerves. I highly recommend you stop whatever you are doing (after reading this) and buy this album. Posthaste!
