 "Citrus" is the second work by Asobi Seksu (in Italian "sesso per divertimento" or "per gioco"), a New York quartet dedicated to playing something halfway between shoegaze, indie pop, and alternative rock.

 "Hush" is a fairy-tale album, with which Asobi Seksu turns towards other paths, choosing the more pop ones; the only ones that, immersed in the dream, give us moments of ecstatic and dreamy happiness.
