03/05/2005 | Happy Release Day 2005 | The Go-Betweens - Oceans Apart Yep Roc #TheGoBetweens #YepRocRecords @yeproc Pitchfork: „…the Go-Betweens are still writing consistently gorgeous pop songs, and Oceans Apart proves they aren't content simply pleasing their most die-hard fans; they're back to making albums that, in a better world, appeal to everyone.“ Stylus Magazine: „Finally--a Go-Betweens album with the clarinet solos, harmonies, programmed drums, and splendor this band needs. Oceans Apart really sounds bright yellow and bright orange.“ The Guardian: „Grown-up, intelligent and largely divorced from the decade that spawned it, their music never really dated, and you could certainly never accuse it of being dulled by ubiquity“ Mojo: „A musical odyssey across a real and imagined landscape of mountains and cities, dreams and memories.“ Allmusic: „Oceans Apart is the first great Go-Betweens' record of the 21st century.“ Uncut: „The band sounds re-energised by an idea of the city, the marketplace, pop ambition.“ Treble: „Listening to the songs on this release, it becomes easier to discern the distinctive, respective songwriting styles of Forster and McLennan.“ Q Magazine: „There are songs here that count among the best they've made“ Rolling Stone: „Newcomers will hear a seductively pretty indie-pop record, while their still-ballooning cult can marvel at the sound of their iridescent melodies turning autumn-gold.“ https://www.instagram.com/p/CdGuj1sNVGk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
