...sonic violence of their eponymous debut. After that, however, there is a sudden and even forced change of pace. The final tracks, “We Are Water” and “In Violet,” are slower, dirgelike experiments with softness. Both unfortunately fall flat because HEALTH appear completely incapable of coming up with melodic beauty, even of a disturbing kind. Instead, the album peters out—anticlimax rather than conclusion. There is much to like and admire about HEALTH. They have ambition, musical skill, fabulous drumming and the ability to combine a remarkably diverse...

At least 50 or 60. RR: Wow, you must be eating some expensive breakfasts. Have you ever been to Saturday breakfast? I thought they should...
...Tweedy and the band seem to be announcing a realization of identity, defining their sound at an intersection of styles that they previously employed seperately. Unusually, this solid album opens with its weakest track: “Wilco (the Song)” is a forced joke that falls flat. After this misstep, however, the album proves to be a consistently enjoyable listen. Wilco’s two previous releases, 2004’s “A Ghost is Born” and 2007’s “Sky Blue Sky” alternately displayed the band?...
