Built to Spill - "Things Fall Apart"

HANK ALTOGETHER:

Slowly, but surely, this Built to Spill record (There is No Enemy, due 10/6 on Warner Bros.) is unfolding itself to the internet. Like a new bride, the boys from Idaho's latest track "Things Fall Apart" begins slowly and begins to pick up speed. The resulting track is more "The Weather" than the amped up lines of the last record, You In Reverse. Martsch and boys will still, probably, have their riff machine plugged in for the other tracks. But with both "Hindsight" and "Things Fall Apart" we're getting treated to the lovely melodic side of Built to Spill. Dude must have some tears in that beard.

Stereogum has it.
