Get it on Vinyl too,
By Elise (Hamilton) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Yesterday Was Dramatic Today Is Ok (Audio CD)
Mum make us chill, light candles and drink heaps of red wine. We are out like a light after that. Just kidding. This is certainly danceable stuff and I recommend this is you like Bjork, Sigur Ros or Dada Pogrom. It is kind of light and fuzzy though. You will smile your way through it, right to the cash register.

Something wonderful in a sea of mundane...,
By therokenman "therokenman" (Warrenton, Virginia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Yesterday Was Dramatic Today Is Ok (Audio CD)
There is a lot of music out there that is really good. Unfortunately, it is surrounded by all sorts of filler. Like anyone that heads out in to the hills with a tin pan and a dream, I have spent a ridiculous amount of time searching for musical gold. This is one album that qualifies. It is the type of album that I will put on when I am in the mood for chilling out with a nice glass of scotch and a book. It is mostly instrumental, and takes a couple listens to get the feel for the flittering beauty it lays out. A lot of people have compared this band to Sigur Ros but, other than being from Iceland, it is not a fair comparison. Having said that, if you are the type of person that likes Sigur Ros, you will probably like this album (don't expect it to sound like them, though).

It's cotton candy for your ears,
By Ted B "elysium314" (Washington, DC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Yesterday Was Dramatic Today Is Ok (Audio CD)
It's rare that a musician creates a masterpiece that manages to weave originality, beauty and emotion into such a fine tapestry. But that's exatly what Mum has done with this, easily their best album to date. It's the atmospherics that make this album. Lyrics only comprise a small (but stirring) portion of one song, but they really aren't missed. The atmospherics are so masterfully done that they wrap you within a spell: the almost giddy motif immediately calls to mind the fuzzy, positive memories of childhood: listening to it for the first time is like experiencing the joys of childhood again, with the excitement of a child. Light-hearted, beautiful, seamless, this album is a must-have; trust me. And here's a little hint: if you buy it directly from amazon.co.uk and have it shipped, you can save yourself money and time. (Or at least that was the case before the dollar collapsed.)
