  1. Overproduction ultimately damns this record as much as anything, with everything cranked to 11 and Rogue's voice constantly reverbed. Permalight sounds like a band who's incredibly eager to impress, which wasn't how Rogue emerged on the scene, a singer of simple pop songs.
  2. Permalight is a startling contrast in subdued grace and awkward severity, alternately rewarding and punishing as the band seeks to craft a new voice without entirely abandoning the old.

    A jarring, but refreshing, makeover.
