Comment: the Wisconsin-based
collective Bell Monks` 12-track issue is a contemplative, beatific insight
through indie/dream pop alternative pop pathways. The album deserves its name –
it sways between oneiric and hyper-realistic, between fictive and ideal world. It
can readily represent the time after the pop charts are lost their mind. In a
word, it is an example of the so-called ideal pop where experimental tendencies
are craftily adopted into pop structures. The album is filled with outstanding
examples and presenting no weak tracks meanwhile.
