Here, Here and Here is the third studio album by Meg & Dia. It was released by the Warner Bros. via Sire Records on April 21, 2009. In contrast to the band's previous release Something Real, Here, Here and Here minimally references literature. The sole exception is the track "Hug me" (née "Hug me till you drug me"), which was inspired by Brave New World. The eponymous closing track references a Mozart quote and narrative in which the composer points to his heart, mind and ears (here, here and here) in order to explain how he wrote his music.[1]
Here, Here and Here debuted at number one on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart and number 103 on the top 200.[2]
Critical reception
Andrew Leahey of AllMusic noted that Here, Here and Here expands Meg & Dia's sound by blending pop rock with emo elements and sexually frank lyrics.[3]
