    Homely Family more like it. If you take the meticulous calculations combined with the philosophical reverberations, what you get is a little like homeostatic observations.

    Although their entire catalog this far is remarkably solid, Last Days of Wonder probably one-ups its predecessors as a consistent band’s most consistent album.

    One can't help but think that just a little bit more spice might have elevated all of these beautiful ideas out of the trappings of their now painfully insular song structures.

    It's easy enough to listen to the album as a whole, but roughly a third of the songs are clunkers.
