Best Coast 006 Beach House   On The Sea // Best Coast  Do You Still Love Me Like You Used To?

The weather is great, and Summer is just around the corner.

It’s the perfect time to crank up some chilled out surf rock tunes.

Beach House and Best Coast couldn’t agree more.

They both released their new albums today.

The albums provide the two sides of the transition from Spring to Summer.

Beach House brings the dreamy loveliness of frollicking in a meadow surrounded by flowers in full bloom while Best Coast provides a call to arms for the beach-bound.
