Hmm

Got the new Rilo Kiley CD today, and it's not rocking my world as much as some of their earlier work. It's not bad, it's just not amazing--I give it 3/3.5 stars. It might grow on me after repeated listening, I suppose. Some tracks are too disco-ey, and Jenny Lewis's voice just doesn't sound as angelic as on prior albums, or even her solo album. Standouts for me: "The Moneymaker," "Dejalo," and "15." I tell ya, I shoulda been a feisty music critic . . .

P.S. I'm impressed that I'm listening to it in Bethel on its official release date. Why couldn't you hook that up for Harry Potter, Amazon?
