Comment: The Juliets, a Detroit-based combo is back with their sophomore album, called Perfect Season, a follow-up to their vastly fascinating self-titled release, which was one of the most remarkable notches in 2010. While this 12-track set does not include such frenetic teasers as Sweetheart, Sunday Song, or Evolved Into, the quintet used to be still enough enjoyable, providing idiosyncratic, melodramatic yet a little bit more straightforward pop pieces, having some similarities with the likes of Arcade Fire, The Antlers, The National, and Beirut and Sufjan Stevens. For instance, it chimes even a little better than the last one by Arcade Fire. All in all, enjoy this lovely music made by lovely people.
