The Whole Love

A sprawling balance of experimental krautrock textures and masterfully crafted power-pop. Warm, literate, and bookended by two of the band's most ambitious epics.

It's the one where they finally figured out how to be experimental and catchy at the exact same time.

A sophisticated blend of restless experimentalism and warm, settled-in comfort.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden transition from the glitchy, motorik pulse of Art of Almost into a frenetic, dual-guitar shredding climax.
The way the twelve-minute closer One Sunday Morning maintains a hypnotic, circular acoustic riff that feels like a meditation on time.
The bouncy, distorted bass line of I Might cutting through a bright, 60s-inspired organ melody.
