Synthesizers fall where you might expect more electric guitars (and vice versa); country-rock sidles up to the warped extravagance of '80s pop. Instant classic "Baby Missiles" is part Spingsteen fever dream, part motorik anthem.

Reviews5 stars out of 5 -- "Rich with things money alone can't buy -- wit, imagination, ambition, excitement....It's a thrill.", "'Baby Missiles' overlays a synth aura, like '80s-era Springsteen with a splash of Arcade Fire. It's vexing in exactly the right way.", Ranked #10 in Uncut's '50 Best Albums Of 2011' -- "Granduciel's songs had a guyish, Springsteen-like intimacy, but came judiciously wrapped in gauzy, stadium-sized spacerock.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "There are some '80s overtones and splashes of melody buoyed on longing, but it's not mere melancholia, this echoes with vibrant life, helping make it a work of real wonder."
