A tour de force in laying it down so it stays down, this record features the electric quartet of Mulvey, Goodrich, Lou Ulrich and Mike Piehl at their height. The songs range as broadly as ever, from questions of National soul writ large (Abilene) and small (Horses), and questions of love and mortality as seen through the lens of the ancient (You and Me and the Ten Thousand Things) and the young (Girl in the Hi-Tops). There's also a fine re-imagining of U2's rocker The Fly.
