    The Scene Between is a happy remedy to a cynical industry and scary, un-groovy world. One listen and you'll be transported back to your teens--when some sunshine and a little dance would cure all.

    If the Go! Team’s first three records felt a bit like mainlining sugar water, The Scene Between, with its narrower palate and less daring adventurism, is even more sticky sweet.

    It all sounds amazing on the first couple of listens, but the wheat (songs like the title track and “Did You Know?”) separates quickly from the chaff. Regardless, The Scene Between opens up a whole new lane for an artist that would have been easy to write off.

    It’s got moments of music that sound like life. And when the songwriting is interesting and the melodies evocative, what you need is something to keep up what they’ve built.

    If the record lacks the spunk and originality of past releases, then it more than makes up for it with the breadth of delightful hooks that flow through each song.

    These saccharine tunes and too-cute melodies could desperately use some of the band's old abrasive edge.
