nickc.Sep 17, 2007I haven't heard any of this band's previous albums, but had heard the name in hip indie mags and off the lips of scenesters ranting and raving about the next big indie girl band. This album sucks. It's not atrocious, it is slightly listenable, but that's it. The lyrics are awful. Yet again we learn that hype is complete bullshit.

Yes, the beats are big and the sound is mainstream and commercial; however, the band sound restrained and uncomfortable.
-
Under The Blacklight is by far and away the most accessible album that Rilo Kiley have ever made.
-
Every one of the eleven songs attached to Blacklight is a stunner in purely musical terms.
