Excerpt: "I’ll admit it. If an artist happens to mention in their press release  that David Bowie has singled them out as one of his favorite current acts, I’ll give it a  listen.  If memory serves, the erstwhile Thin White Duke once paid a  similar compliment to Arcade Fire, and that seems to have worked out  pretty well for those kids...  Fans of Faun Fables, Joanna  Newsom, Bjork and their ilk are likely going to find the dreampop  offerings on the duo’s new record... I’ll just say that <em>The  Green</em> is a fascinating and absorbing listen that should  sneak onto more than a few year end Best Of lists, even without  the assistance of Mr. Bowie.  Check out lead single and 'Leatherwing  Bat', which recalls Richard and Linda Thompson after a few  psilocybin smoothies."
