Here’s a highly evolved foursome led by an appealing frontman (Jeffrey Krantz), whose strong voice (augmented at times by a golden-toned female backup) is ideal for guitar-driven alt-rock. Each song here (“Run Away With Me,” “Until We Meet Again”) is catchy, crafty, and skillfully engineered and produced for maximum results, helping the band to achieve a consistently inviting, effervescent sound. They dig into their roots with “What Happened to My Rock & Roll,” which laments the loss of rock music’s depth and dominance. All in all, every creative choice––whether a dirty, distorted guitar tone or a terse, tight solo––serves the song and studiously avoids overindulgence.
