Wolf Parade have traditionally been labeled as a buzz band. Because their sound was too complex for the average human listener to understand. Upon first glance this album almost seems like they are fooling around (ex. Call It a Ritual) almost like their trying to get a more mainstream audience. But it far more complex than child's play. They have accomplished something that some try all their careers to do. Which is bring together critics and mainstream fans alike with their most recent release.
Rating: Lyrics: 34/40 (Lot's of "Ohh, Ohh"'s for my liking but pretty good)
Tunefulness: 43/50 (Their simpleness is what is so astounding)
Originality: 7/10 (Their voices sound low-fi but their production is so top of the line, this hasn't been done in a while)
Overall: 84/100 (Give it a chance and you will enjoy it more and more...)
