This Is Our Music (Galaxie 500 album)

This Is Our Music is the third and final studio album by American indie rock band Galaxie 500, released in 1990 on Rough Trade Records.

[3] Select critic Andrew Perry lauded This Is Our Music as a progression from Galaxie 500's previous work, noting its "more brilliant, inspirationally unsophisticated melodies ... allied to an instrumental audacity that is entirely new", and concluded that "Galaxie 500's music is still rooted in the minimalist confines of their soft songs ... but it has come of age.

"[12] Stephen Dalton of NME, while finding certain songs to be overlong, complimented the album's "artful" music and "quiet humour".

[8] In a retrospective review for AllMusic, Ned Raggett called This Is Our Music "arguably the band's most accomplished" album and highlighted the band members' individual performances: "Somehow ... everyone aims higher, Wareham's singing among his finest and his guitar going for the truly epic more than once, Krukowski and Yang even more perfectly in sync than before, often being very bold without losing their intrinsic warmth.

"[4] All tracks are written by Galaxie 500, except as notedCredits adapted from liner notes.
