...expand and burst, growing fuller with each verse, culminating in a heavenly guitar solo. “Nothing to Hide” is more ragged but still impeccable. Drawing on the raw, garage-rock sensibility of “Fuckbook” (the March LP of their alter-egos, Condo Fucks), the band refines the genre with more polished harmonies, precise rhythms, and bright, crisp organ.The album’s centerpiece comes, fittingly, at song 6 of 12 tracks. “If It’s True” begins with a bass line immediately echoed by soaring strings...
