First I called 16-year-old Joseph Mendoza in Reno, Nev. Mendoza, who has a graphic-design company and was paid $28 to design the fan site Heidi-Pratt.com says he is not disappointed by Montag's album, though he adds, "I generally like all albums." He loves the way Montag portrays a villain on The Hills and in interviews and probably when she's all alone. But he really admires her husband Spencer Pratt, whom he sees as a Svengali. "You know how Paris Hilton seemed before she appeared on her new show and showed people she's smart...
Shannon Carney, a 22-year-old assistant producer for National Geographic's science show Known Universe, has been equally impressed by Montag's willingness to entertain, but the album, plus Montag's extreme plastic surgery, has made her less of a fan. "The world was her stage, and her life was a show," Carney says. "Unfortunately, it looks like she bought tickets to her own show." Carney thinks it's highly unlikely that Montag's music career will continue: "All 658 of us are not going to rally to go to a Heidi Montag concert." If they did, it would...

Full of cold, echoing vocals and propelled by a lulling drone, Beach House songs are more March in Montauk than July on the Cape. But Teen Dream, the band's third and most accomplished album, takes one step closer to the sun. Warm guitars, swoon-inducing melodies--why, the whole thing's positively springlike. You can almost forgive the pair the cruel joke of releasing it in the dead of winter...
...bandmate Alex Scally. Each song was wrapped in a thick, dark haze, all lazy drum-machine beats, ghostly organs and retro synth lines. If you were ever to hear one in a movie, it would be as background music to a mysterious woman dancing in the twilight. By album No. 2, Devotion, that sound was so rigidly set that it seemed as if the duo had run slowly but beautifully into a dead end. Why mess with perfection...
