''Teen Dream'' is the third studio album by American dream pop duo Beach House, released in January 2010. Produced by Chris Coady, ''Teen Dream'' is Beach House's Sub Pop debut. The album was well received by the music press, who hailed it as one of the best albums of 2010. NME Magazine included it in their 2013 edition of the ''500 Greatest Albums of All Time''.〔http://consequenceofsound.net/2013/10/the-top-500-albums-of-all-time-according-to-nme/〕 The album was also included in the 2011 edition of the book ''1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die''. In August 2014, Pitchfork Media ranked the album the 5th best album of the 2010s so far. ==Recording== The recording of ''Teen Dream'' took place after extensive touring of the Beach House's previous album, ''Devotion'' (2008). According to Legrand, while on tour "we definitely stored up a lot of energy and ideas that we had. By the end of the touring cycle we couldn’t wait to get back home to start working on the next record. In some ways, touring is a restraint on the creative side, because it’s hard to write on the road. So you just have to wait, and sit on this anticipation until the time you’re able to spend days, weeks, months working on something." The duo strove to create a more "sophisticated" album and, according to the group, the demos of this record were comparable to the final tracks that made up their previous record. Also, their use of extensive reverb was held back significantly. According to Alex Scally "There's very little reverb on the record". Recording this album was considerably more expensive; Scally says, "Every bit of money we got, we spent. The recording was insanely expensive. Every single step of the way, we've just tried to go more, go further".〔(Interviews: Beach House | Features | Pitchfork ) Pitchfork Media - interview by Joe Colly.〕 "Norway" was released online on November 17, 2009, with the full album leaking onto the Internet a few days later. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Teen Dream」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
