A Cloud is not a Cult

This'll be a followup to "Chemicals Collide" from 2.29.07. Why, you ask? Because Cloud Cult's The Meaning of 8 is really a stellar record and it's pretty important to me that you know it. It's still quirky and beautiful (kind of like Maggie Gyllenhaal) and still reminds me of the menomena record, but it's definitely more sober. The vocals are a delicate gossamer spread over a sturdy framework of acoustic guitars and balsa wood. I'm pretty sure if these songs weren't tied to the ground, they might just fly off into the trees like wishing dandelions do.
