    Filled with frisky self-confidence, Falcon Bitch and Shmoofy—note the absurd names—bolt through sixteen terse, inventive tracks as they dryly switch and harmonize vocals.

    With Congleton at the helm, the track sequencing and production are near perfect. For an album brimming with ideas, EELS only contains one minor misstep, which is a matter of taste. For all its simplicity, the tongue-in-cheek send-up of “Rock n’ Roll Hurts”, could have been a sincere offering but devolves into giggles (yes, we get the over-the-top sentiment). “Goodnight” is the opposite, an album-ender that challenges a traditional lullaby but remains heartfelt.

    Their inventive spirit and unconventional approach carve out unusual paths that, once traveled, become a delight to revisit.
