Had they chosen to change their name to Pyramiddd, they could have been filed right next to the similar-sounding
,
, or
. But
it is, and even though the name doesn't lend itself to maturity, their third full-length shows definite signs of development. Principal songwriter
still makes easy, breezy songs in a synthesized pop style on
, but the cute factor is dialed back a notch. New member
boosts the sonic value with some live drumming (instead of using primarily programmed beats), and
producer
paints these songs with a cooler sheen, which is a big step in the right direction. These little enhancements help to make
sound less like a laptop project and more like an actual big-league band for their
debut. Parted out, the tunes are still glossy and uber-catchy enough to make them viable commercial jingles, but as a whole,
is way more concrete than earlier
records. There aren't any weak points, and it drifts along dreamily, from one understated jam to the next. ~ Jason Lymangrover
