Feast of Wire does indeed offer a tantalizing array of sounds new and old from Calexico, including more pop-oriented takes on their already eclectic style as well as some different sonic twists. In the hands of a lesser band, all the different sounds Calexico explores on "Feast of Wire" could result in a mish-mash of an album, but fortunately for them and their fans, it's one of their most accomplished and exciting efforts.
