	<description><![CDATA[On their EP and 7\", Days adopt all of the delicate splendor that made us all fall for Johnny Marr\'s guitar lines within The Smiths\' catalog, and the James-like approach of Australia\'s criminally neglected Youth Group. The end result is a luxuriant collection of indiepop tunes, contemplative but upbeat, without either leaning taking up too much of the focus; a delicate balance between sweetness and reflection that easily could have become a saccharine-sweet mess in less able hands. Along with The Mary Onettes, Days have established themselves as among the best musicians continuing the lineage set up in 1980s. ]]></description>
