A Collection of Vibrations for Your Skull is the first full-length album released by Danish indie pop band Treefight for Sunlight. It was originally released in Denmark, in 2010, by independent label Tambourhinoceros. In February 2011, it was released in the United Kingdom under the title Treefight for Sunlight by Bella Union. Finally, in November 2011, the album made its American debut, under its original title, released by Friendly Fire Recordings.

Reception

Reviews in both Britain and America have been mixed. Indie blog Treble called the album "a powerful and thoughtful first release from a genuinely talented quartet of musicians".[2] Another music blog, Drowned in Sound, went so far as to say "with their debut album being so patchy, they may not be given the chance [to succeed]".[3] Their song "Facing the Sun", and its accompanying music video, had almost universally positive reviews, as the Guardian said "the sense of joy summoned forth by the singing and music [in Facing the Sun] seemed almost preternaturally, lysergically determined".[4]
