Which track did you use, Jar? I'm curious...I also have their previous releases, also as the more typical shoegazery band...um...um...Anywhen?...Anytime?...Anymore! Umani has more guitarsy elements, but their songwriting was already quite good. I don't think it's HDCD, but it sounds that good, yes.
I picked "Milkdrunk" for this one (first track on the cd, first track on the comp), but my favorite song from the cd is "Oceanwide" ... I just love the way she sings "I will not give up on you..." mmmmmmmm

oh what the hell..

"Oceanwide" by Halou

All of this love, it overwhelms me
And now you want the distance
Of an ocean between us

I want you to know
That I will not give up on you

I thought that you could meet me half way
Figured that you could
I thought that you could love me
Figured that you'd fall

All of this love, it withers within me
And it's not fair, no, it's not fair
But, you never said it would be

I thought that you would be there
Figured that you would
