Alive As You Are is the third album by Darker My Love. It was released on 26 July 2010 in the UK and 17 August 2010 in North America on Dangerbird Records. All tracks by Tim Presley except were noted Allmusic.com - "More Beatles/Dylan than My Bloody Valentine, Alive as You Are is an album that’s more about being listened to than just felt. With layers of vocal and guitar melodies at work, songs like 'Trail the Line' and 'Dear Author' have a carefully constructed depth that feels more intricate than 2’s thick fuzz was able to produce. This kind of precision helps to give you the feeling that this is an album that was written and not just jammed out, allowing you to feel the hand of its creator and to appreciate the songcraft at work here. While fans of Darker My Love’s earlier albums may be a bit put off by this sudden sea change, Alive as You Are marks a pleasant sonic shift for the band, offering anyone willing to listen a love letter to San Francisco’s psych-pop past and the sounds of the paisley underground.
