About

After securing some nice publicity with their appearance in the movie <i>Nick & Nora’s Infinite Playlist</i>, Bishop Allen return with their third full-length release, a collection of bouncy, breezy pop songs that flow smoothly from one to the next. These 13 songs are cleverly constructed and more nuanced than they appear on first listen; they almost make it sound too easy. While the formula is basic guitar-based pop, the songs stand out on the strength of hummable melodies, snappy backing vocals, neatly-placed keyboards and strings, and good editing — the longest song clocks in at 3:15. The lyrics are similarly concise, with witty wordplay and playfulness the rule. “Dimmer,” “Oklahoma,” “True or False,” and “Cue the Elephants” are immediately catchy, and there are plenty of other charming moments spread across the album as well, making <i>Grrr…</i> lighthearted, likeable, and a lot of fun.
