From paladisiac 01/02/2013 16:16
Andrew Bird returns from portraying the muppets' "whistling caruso" reinvesting in folk (accompanied by a female vocalist who takes the lead in "lusitania"), losing some of the energy i've grown to love from "the mysterious production of eggs" album and on. The songs are pleasant with good melody, but "eyeoneye" is the only track that doesn't sound like an adult contemporary single b-side, and even that track is a bit light in the loafers. This guy has pumped out a huge catalogue of witty indie folk pop for many years and it sounds like he's taking a respite. (Maybe the muppets ruined him?? haha)

Close to greatness. A few trite songs keep it from getting there, but it's best moments are dang near transcendant

My first intro to Andrew Bird. Very nice retro-celty singing and songwriting. A sound that never gets old.

Like a gentle boat ride. Although I'm not sure that is the right thing to write considering one of the songs subjects. It's still gentle though, comes in waves. Doesn't get inside the head but passes through pleasantly.

I was pleased with this. It didn't immediately blow my mind, but as I listened and got I into it I really dug the atmosphere. And yeah Hole in the Ocean Floor is great.
