There were a lot of solid choices for album of the week this week, but as mentioned in the previous post about poolside.fm the sun is out and I'm rocking a serious summer vibe (even though there is still a few feet of snow on the ground).

Not a whole lot has changed since the last record, although the production has been cleaned up a little bit. The lyrical content is a little darker, which is a little strange to hear from a band like Real Estate. Even with the darker lyrical content, the album still feels like summer which at this point works well for me:
