A tasty debut from this melodic, thoughtful & accomplished 5-piece band from Auckland (NZ), chock full of breathy and seductive sweeping pop epics. Original and smart, with lush intriguing arrangements, and accomplished musicianship, Goldenhouse play a beautifully precise and tauntingly eloquent set of songs - a hyrid of a number of influences including Bjork, later career Cocteau Twins, Saint Etienne, Cranberries, Robbie Robertson, Burt Bacharach, etc. An easy, satisfying and addictive listen is guaranteed. Recommended. 2003 NZ Music Award Finalist - Album Of The Year / Kirsten Morelle - Best Female Vocalist.
