...soaring, intellectual, rustic chamber pop, it seems impossible that he could have ever been a part of the ultra-swinging Squirrel Nut Zippers. He has transformed from floor-stomping fiddler into a mega-orchestral artist for the ages. Yet some aspects of “Armchair Apocrypha” aren??t improvements over Bird’s earlier work. The album seems to aspire to the grand populism of arena rock, but it loses the catchy hooks and grab-your-head lyrics that popped out of “Mysterious Production.” For example, even though...
...greedy, money-grubbing sort—this means she would be treated very well. The backbeat is fantastic; the use of the lyric, “You spin me right round” toward the song’s end, however, is not.

Ah Spacey, we?...

With just over a minute left on the clock, Snyder sat back while his contenders struggled away, and mused, “Wow, I’ve just won the championship.” The puzzles Snyder faces aren??t all the one-minute-in-heaven 9x9 squares students toy with in boring lectures. At the World Championship, Snyder explains, there was a puzzle that was “nine Sudokus connected to each other,” creating a super-sized Sudoku with 729 number blanks. Sound intense...
