 Every album by Cloud Cult is an obsessive attempt to reconstruct meaning around things.

 The meaning of 'eight' remains unattainable, as the essence of the album, revolving around philosophical and religious themes.

 The sweet complacency of The Go Find is as unflappable as a Flemish who says thank you when you step on his foot.

 They can draw stars on the wall better than anyone else. But, damn: they’re drawn on a wall.

It evokes introspection and calm, drawing comparisons to bands like Death Cab For Cutie and Piano Magic. Highlights include the catchy 'Dictionary' and the eighties-inspired 'Adrenaline'. While its mellow mood charms, the album risks monotony towards the end. Listen to The Go Find's 'Stars On The Wall' and experience a serene indie-tronica journey.
