Dream the Dream with Me

"I'm shocked, shocked to be writing the first review of this album in Janary 2005. My heart yearns for releases like this, ethereal, floating, saturated with dense waves of tone. It's like drifting into sun-streaked rainclouds, like wandering along a fog-banked beach. If you like Slowdive and crave anything written in B Minor, if you wish you could authentically cry at movies again, if you'd rather be alone with your moods than engaged in bubble-gum chitchat, if you gravitate towards the girl/guy who reads a book in a crowded room rather than mindlessly mingle - then meander into the lush soundworlds of Auburn Lull and linger. There's no rush, no pretense, no real beginnings or endings to the tracks as they weave their way through a rich textural landscape. I wish I could stare out of the window from a train in Europe with these songs on my MuVo... This is obviously not an album you'll put on casually. Like a cold swim after the hottub cranked way high, you'll want to dive into something fast, driving and lean afterwards... but while you're here, settle in, forget your stress and allow yourself the luxury to dream again."

MUCH TO ADMIRE HERE

"This is one of the best space rock/atmospheric music disks released in the past 10 years. Origionally released in 1999 on Burnt Hair Records. Darla wisely rereleased this disk in 2002. This CD has stood the test of time and sounds as brilliant today as it did 6 years ago. Auburn Lull really created a work that sparkles with intensity and lush beauty."

In a word: Beautiful

"I first discovered this cd back in 1999. As a student at Michigan State University, I'd heard one of their songs played on the college radio's "space music" broadcast. I fell for the lush, ethereal sounds instantly. Upon first listen I assumed it was from a European group, so I was surprised to find it was from 4 guys in my own backyard or more specifically Mason, Michigan. It is genuinely hard to find words to describe this album. Each song is beautiful and they flow together to create a dreamscape of sound that carries you away from where ever you are, whatever you may be doing. It is music to soothe, to dream, to live by. I can not recommend it highly enough."
