The album is a perfect mixture of the band's first two records, blended with an equal part of their rock swagger and part their post-electro swing.
-
Expo 86 is a brilliant reinforcement of what occurs when true chemistry exists in a band.
-
The Montreal quartet is mostly successful in this balancing act, delivering a handful of thematically-obtuse pop missiles heavy on reverb and guitar, with trademark synths still lurking low in the mix.
-
Expo 86 just straight up rocks. It never lets up on the monstrous riffs it delivers in its first 10 seconds.
-
It might be difficult to expect such restlessly creative musicmakers to sit still for long, but Expo 86 shows that Wolf Parade could be a place worth settling in for a while.
