    An “anything goes” approach to recording, which included opening up to let his bandmates collaborate on the songwriting, pays off in this captivating collection.
  2. It's sometimes hard to push past the (at times) seriously sappy lyrics and focus on the music. Fortunately for us though, Eels are the focused ones here and have proven once again their acumen for crafting quirkily moody pop songs that are impossible not to like.
  3. While the album feels a little overlong (even at 46 minutes) and lacks--understandably--the rawness of Hombre Loco or End Times, it's a warm, uplifting work.
