The Owls' first full-length album

is a giant step beyond their debut EP It takes them out of the

world of workaday indie pop and into a more sophisticated world

of bands like Camera Obscura, Young and Sexy, and Belle & Sebastian

who add a large helping of drama and soul to their soundWhen

they blend together in different formations, it can raise goose

bumps and warm hearts. Daughters and Suns is a real coming out party

for the Owls, the record could steal some hearts (more)

Pitchfork



"Minneapolis four-piece

the Owls had one of the dreamiest indie-pop songs of 2004 in "Air",

from debut "mini LP" Our Hopes and Dreams. "Peppermint

Patty", from follow-up Daughters and Suns, shows the band continuing

to delight in the softer side of the Velvet Underground (particularly

Loaded's "Who Loves the Sun"), with their lush boy-girl

harmonies, acoustic guitars, and plinking piano. It's a tender,

nuanced song about a Belle and Sebastian-worthy protagonist.
