    Half the songs on this album have been around for ages, such as New York, Carwars, Giant Song and Finale. These, in their original form especially, are raw, exciting and infectious. Songs such as Postcards, Youth & Poverty and Relics just don't pack the same punch and provide a dull second half for what is otherwise a good extension of Bootleg.

    Chad Elliot bends his elastic voice between teetering wails and delicate melodies, and sharp guitar work keeps the album charging, even with some sneaky jazz progressions thrown in.

    They may not have as much depth as their influences, but at their best, their shiny surfaces are a lot of fun.
