    Babel is the more subtle and accomplished album. [No. 92, p.56]

    For those who never liked That Guy Who Plays Acoustic Guitar At The Party, Babel's gonna sound like the dentist's drill. For others, this still may be the point at which you put down your makeshift tambourine, get up from the half-circle and find a better room in the party house.

    It's certainly not a departure from the band's debut, but rather a continuation.
