Too many songs are caught between the band’s fading post-punk tension and their more professional desires.
-
The band has... streamlined their songwriting, whittling away the unconventional turns and multiple pre-choruses that made their earlier material more interesting, leaving emotionally aerodynamic compositions free of atonal snags or polyrhythmic left-turns.
-
As bland and timid a record as likely to come out in the strikingly boring year of 2006.
