    For its third album, Expo 86, the band tempers the musical diversity of its predecessors and focuses more on standard rock fare.

    While the band is probably not in danger of rubbing shoulders with Nickleback on commercial airwaves in the next few months, they wear their new sonic heft well. [Summer 2010, p.86]

    Their sound, now more than ever, is a paradox: despite the Cure-ish grey waves of guitar and Spencer Krug's morose vocal tics, Wolf Parade can't conceal the fact that being in a band is clearly terrific fun for them.
