From Our Living Room to Yours is the second album by the American Analog Set, released in 1997 on Emperor Jones.[1] [2] It was recorded on analog equipment at the band's Austin, Texas, home.[3] [4]
SF Weekly wrote that "on 'Where Have All the Good Boys Gone', the relative hush and use of empty space allow aural elements that would have been drowned out in a Great Wall of Marshall stacks to stand crisp and resolute."[5] Rolling Stone called the album "an evocative blend of psychedelic melancholia."
The Chicago Tribune deemed it "a woefully overlooked gem," writing that the band "used a handful of keyboards, guitars and percussion to produce a dreamy, trippy tapestry of minimalist hooks."[6] Nashville Scene labeled the songs' grooves "mesmerizing, like hearing all the odd juxtapositions of an old Yes song smoothed out and shaped into something gentle and calm."[7] AllMusic gave the album a 4.5/5 and said the album "weaves a sonic tapestry of remarkable intricacy and texture" and "is truly a thing of beauty".
