The Hush Sound

I was going to post the iTunes bonus tracks with my review of Goodbye Blues, but decided against it. However, someone asked about them in reply to that post and since I totally understand how annoying it is to have tracks available on only one version (especially when you've already bought a different version), I've decided to go ahead and upload them. They are surprisingly, for being extras, as good as anything on the album. "You Are My Home" is extremely beautiful and features some more variety instrument-wise and "Pretty Down to Your Bones" is similar to all of the album's upbeat tracks, but seems slightly more rock-oriented and aggressive to me. And of course, Greta's voice is completely amazing on both. I think I've come to the conclusion that this band can do absolutely no wrong; they don't have even one terrible song. Enjoy!
