    An album that knocks the stuffing out of 2021's Book - and that album wasn't bad by any means. The World Is To Dig finds TMBG bringing their A-plus game. [Aug 2026, p.62]

    Longtime fans will find plenty to enjoy here, but if somehow this is someone’s first They Might Be Giants album, The World Is to Dig is representative enough to send them burrowing into the wormhole that is the band’s extensive catalog.

    They don't go for the jugular of the tune as rabidly as they once did, although Wu-tang, the French-language Je N'en Ai Pas and several galloping new-wave track certainly do the business. [Jun 2026, p.77]
