    If the sentiments are tough, the music itself is tender, borrowing from Belle & Sebastian and Brill Building pop to create a sound that is both pastoral and urbane, straightforward yet sophisticated.

    Return of the Century is their most impressive record and shows that they were able to turn personal and professional turmoil into a work with great artistic merit.

    It's not a simple pleasure, these guys will quietly make you work to figure out the intricacies of, say, the angular chug of "Bmore," but if you set aside the overall effect, and bed down in this album on a moment-to-moment basis, there's plenty of pop music to get lodged in your head on this record.
