It's too quiet for me, and I really can't bare to listen to the straining of Kristín Anna Valtýsdóttir's voice on this record. I LOVE Now We Are No One. They must've recorded Valtýsdóttir's voice differently on Now We Are No One, because it sounds coy and smooth rather than just plain bad as it does on Summer Make Good.
It deserves another chance, but it's only good to listen to in certain situations.

I was really looking forward to this release earlier this year but when it finally came out I was disappointed. It didn't have the warm Mum feeling like Finally We Are No One and even Yesterday was Dramatic... The vocals were a little off. They didnt seem to match the instrumetation this time around. While the sweet child like voice went really well with warm organic sounds in the past they seemed to leave that for chunkier, more industrial style of Summer. Like I said I really wanted to love it but it never caught on even after repeated, dedicated listens.

However, I thought I read somewhere that they had a new ep out that was great and more along the lines of the other stuff. I can't really find anything after a quick search so now maybe I was dreaming it. Has anyone seen/ heard it??
