    Their artistry has matured. It's more sophisticated & intricate, but... the songs are missing some of the whimsy and joy of their earlier work. I kind of think they might be trying too hard (to be taken seriously). Even so, there are still some solid tracks on here, and if you like FR's past work, you're likely to find a handful of songs you'll like on Pedestrian Verse too.

    It’s intense and contradictory, a bundle of bravado and doubt and vulnerability and longing that stays with you for a long time after the last chorus fades.

    Pedestrian Verse is an album made up of melodies, lyrics and verses that are completely, well, pedestrian.

    This is an album full of stirring, stadium-sized melodies. [2 Feb 2013, p.53]
