Owl City - All Things Bright & Beautiful (2011) - anyone heard this?

This might actually be my favorite album of 2011. I can't stop listening to it! I REALLY like at least 7 songs on there which is very rare. I'm really upset because I only found out about the album like 3 days ago and he played in my city the day after I started listening to it and I found out about THAT the day after. ARGH! Anyway, here's a few songs. Anyone else digging it?

Deer In The Headlights:

Angels:

Galaxies:

Alligator Sky feat. Shawn Chrystopher

The Yacht Club

I have my gripes with Adam Young.

The electronic voice he uses that makes him sound like an astronaut with a clamp placd perfectly on his nuts just bothers me too much.

Which sucks, cause his musical composition and songwriting skiills are the best I've seen in pop lately.

I can understand the fact that Owl City is somewhat pop electronic music and that can legitimize the electrified voice.

However last year he started an Acoustic project called Sky Sailing.

And released the album "An Airplane Carried Me To Bed" (which was fucking amazing)

and uses the same vocal technique which bothers the shit out of me.

It sounds so devoid of emotion.
