Asobi Seksu - Fluorescence (2011)

Since Asobi Seksu released the first album, I never knew exactly whether I loved this band or not. I’ve never really liked the albums as a whole, but they have some wonderful songs spread in these works. “Fluorescence” is  little bit different from the others, but keeps the band swimming in dream-pop waters, sometimes the guitars sound more strident and stuffy, making the Shoegaze vein more perceptible. Personally,  I don’t like the vocal that much, don’t get me wrong, it’s good, but I don’t think that matches with the band’s sonority. However, in “Perfectly Crystal” they got to the point, what a memorable song! They should make more songs like this one. It’s the best one I heard from them so far.
