Consumer Guide Reviews:

Feels [Fat Cat, 2005]
Back when I was a young feller, we called these things hootenannies, only we thought they needed songs ("Did You See the Words," "Turn Into Something"). ★★

Strawberry Jam [Domino, 2007]
"The other side of takeout is mildew on rice" convinced me that they Know Life--but then I started to wonder again ("Peacebone," "Cuckoo Cuckoo"). ★

Merriweather Post Pavilion [Domino, 2009]
Sunny down snuff they're all right with the heroes and villains ("My Girls," "Brother Sport"). ★

Fall Be Kind [Domino, 2009]

Centipede Hz [Domino, 2012]
All too theoretically fun-loving communards nice up the hilarity, whereupon their base tells them to stop being such goofs already ("Moonjock," "Applesauce") ★★★

Painting With [Domino, 2016]
Pomo neocommunalism's snazziest joke band keeps the laffs coming. ("FloriDada," "Recycling") ★★
