...denying the song’s instant gratification potential. “Radio Nowhere” sets the pace for the next two rockers. “You’ll Be Coming Down” features a drumbeat reminiscent of “Dancing in the Dark,” while the horns and swagger on “Livin’ in the Future” recall “The E Street Shuffle” and “Tenth Avenue Freeze-out.” Towards the middle of the album, the tempo slows...

At the show’s end, Darnielle revealed that he could just as easily take the crowd down a darker path, filled with neuroses and insecurity and real loss. The dark didn’t really win over until the second encore: Hughes sat way in the back, leaving Darnielle alone to finish off the show with “Shadow Song.” The manic joy faded away and Darnielle stood alone for the first time that night, grimacing...

The National Snow and Ice Data Center reports that just 1.65 million sq. mi. (about 4.3 million sq km) of Arctic sea ice survived the summer's annual melt. That's the smallest amount left over after September since scientists began keeping records. And they estimate the Arctic ice may have shrunk by half since the 1950s. Worse, the melt is accelerating. The Arctic may be ice-free by the summer...
