Album Review
Filled with bubbling electronics and light, G-rated club anthems, Ocean Eyes sets its sights on the MySpace generation, targeting the younger siblings of those who bought the Postal Service's Give Up six years earlier. This is computerized pop music, replete with programmed drum loops, digital symphonies, and all the amenities of modern recording software. Only Adam Young's vocals carry a hint of human presence, and his fanciful lyrics — which turn even the most mundane content (see "Dental Care," a good ol' fashioned ode to oral hygiene) into whimsy — serve to strengthen the album's escapist appeal. Such syrupy sweetness builds to a feverish pitch throughout the album's 12 tracks, peaking during the viral sensation "Hey Seattle" and its sonic cousin, "On the Wing." Those who don't have a sweet tooth should stay away, but Ocean Eyes will serve as a tasty dessert for those who can stomach it.

Horrible, makes no sense.
by TonyW2325This song makes no sense. It makes my ear want to throw up.
wow!
by flyweightsI first heard fireflies on the radio and was appalled by how terrible it was. The lyrics are rediculous. What is this a nursery rhyme for a baby?? This song didnt "sooth my soul" it made me angry and want to throw my radio off a house. I'd rather listen to the screams of a dying cat than this..
Mixture
by ccppttThis is a mix of The Postal Service and Death Cab for Cutie...completely unoriginal, but some of it sounds awesome. I mean...I love The Postal Service and DCFC...
