2. Glass Ghost – Like a Diamond
Interesting. Beautiful arrangement. I don't really want to be drawn to it, but it's irresistible.

4. Their Planes Will Block Out the Light – Teflon Kids
Sounds like a young Morton Harkett. No bad thing at all. And they take themselves a bit seriously - but not too much thankfully.
