Rilo Kiley is one of my favorite bands, but I'm out of the loop. I didn't hear about this album until the it's release date. Before then I thought the band had split off into solo projects, so I was excited to get my hands on this album. When I got it I was kind of surprised. The music wasn't completely different from their usual sound, but they added a dash of 70s funk, and the lyrics had repetitive chorus lines which were a little annoying in some tracks. I still wouldn't call this a bad album. Jenny Lewis' voice is still amazing, Blake Sennett's guitar is still mesmerizing, and you can still hear their sound under the newly adopted funk. True, I wouldn't say this is their best album, but it's still Rilo Kiley, which is always better than most things the music scene has to offer.
