    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]

    The first TMBG first album still ranks among the best of their 20+ studio albums to date, but this latest one is up there somewhere too.
