Weekends of Sound

"764-HERO is the perfect soundtrack for their homeland... critics often label them as a moodier, lazier Built to Spill, and that seemed somewhat accurate on Get Here and Stay. But on Weekends of Sound, the band aspires to new heights, best illustrated by their nine-minute epic, 'Left Hanging.' The track begins with quiet chimes and casual note picking, and slowly builds until a rising guitar takes over for a chorus that makes room for both poppy handclaps and Atkins' distorted larynx-thrashing." --Pitchfork
