Treefight For Sunlight: A Collection Of Vibrations For Your Skull

Just in case the title of Treefight For Sunlight’s debut album A Collection Of Vibrations For Your Skull doesn’t provide enough of a cue as to what this Copenhagen quartet is up to, the record’s overture-like opening track “A Dream Before Sleep” should be a big flashing sign. Aping both the chirpier side of modern rock bands like Grizzly Bear and The Flaming Lips and the trippier side of ’60s sunshine-pop acts like The Free Design and The 5th Dimension, Treefight For Sunlight intends to nudge listeners into a waking reverie, filling heads with images of blooming flowers and shooting stars. A Collection Of Vibrations is a terrific headphone album, building songs from chiming, minimalist piano riffs into playfully layered aural confections.
