On The Coast Is Never Clear the difficult third album syndrome only affected San Franciscan pop dreamers Beulah in the studio where the band came to blows over, for example, the importance of a diminished seventh on a trumpet solo. From such a roughneck recording environment, however, comes perfection on their third album where expansive, multi-instrumental, orchestral pop is underpinned by the sweetest tunes. See, this album couldbe precious--and in lesser hands it surely would be--but at the core of Beulah's ambitious vision a pure pop heart beats. Special mention must be made of "Silver Lining", a paean to songwriter Miles Kurosky's first love, punk rock. Introduced by a fanfare of horns, the track races along propelled by a fiery guitar riff and the beaten-up joy of being scarred by punk. A bittersweet, sumptuous and utterly compulsive collection, all told. --Ben Clancy
