It’s a little punk (but not too much), with some safe mall emo, a cheeky ’80s glam-rock solo or two that Weezer rejected, and plenty of studio sheen.

Glissceule is as blissed-out as shoegazer can possibly get, consisting of nothing but nigh-endless layers of Cortez’ heavily processed guitars and Arpin’s angelic cooing.

The genius here is that, rather than making these songs into goth ballads or melodramatic affairs, they keep them short, sweet, and best of all, catchy.

Perhaps better than any other Hush release, it illustrates the label’s “anti-rock” stance.

The Estonian group shamelessly blends the best of My Bloody Valentine, Lush, and Stereolab.

Despite being an original motion picture soundtrack, this is in no way background music.

Music like this should be short and sweet, otherwise it wears out its welcome.

With this package Rhino has raised the bar on quality for CD reissues.

For the most part, the album maintains a consistent mood best suited for contemplative moments.

A sweet pop record to sing along to.
