Colossal cash-in single from Audio Antihero and Cloud, I wanted to get rich/famous and he wanted to design some more cover art. Who had the nobler intentions? You decide.

Press:
"Astoundingly accomplished." - Pitchfork
"Cloud know their way around a pop song, and for all of the album's off-beat charms, and occasionally hard-to-grasp content, it's a true pop heart which can be found at the centre of every song that helps to make this such a rewarding listen - 8/10." - Drowned In Sound
"A great record." - Tom Ravenscroft (BBC 6 Music)
"Comfort Songs holds a strong claim as one of best albums under the ill-defined umbrella of 'indie-rock' that has been released in the last
decade or so - 10/10." - Contact Music
"Great!" - Eric Lawrence (KCRW)
"Emerging 21 year old singer/producer Cloud forges a rich, heartening sound around a passionate vocal, dressing his narratives in shimmering instrumentation, like Conor Oberst in the throes of an obsession with psychedelia." - Rough Trade & The Guardian
"Excellent." - Tom Robinson (BBC 6 Music)
"Immediately one of my favourite albums of the year." - Sonic Reverie
"I love this..." - Simon Raymonde (Amazing Radio/Bella Union)
"Mainman Tyler Taormina veers through emotions and narratives over the convention-blurring full-length, crooning of love and life and fear and anger over a stunning backdrop of fuzzy guitars, shuffling rhythms and clarion brass. It's a record sodden with heavyweight feeling that gets you right inside the inner machinations of a troubled soul; it's simultaneously heartbreaking and fascinating." - Bearded Magazine
"A very strong debut." - 7BitArcade
"What starts out promising to be a short and sweet alt-rock number, expands out into a captivating instrumental which ebbs and flows...be sure to check out the record - 8/10." - Shout 4 Music
"A bewildering treat - 8.5/10." - Crackle Feedback
"Deserves to be a huge indie hit." - Yankie Music
"In Comfort Songs I find a time for reflection, a confirmation of life and its wonder, and a sense of belonging – to whom, I’m not certain, but to someone. And I know, years down the road, this will remain a landmark album for me, with just the same resonant power. Hopefully, dear reader, you’ll be moved, too." - GoldFlakePaint
