Atlas Sound’s first album was distinguished by an overall unhappiness throughout its indiscernible words, despressing lyrics, and occasional major chords. Such quiet, low, minor, and slightly creepy tones can be found on several of the tracks on “Logos”—such as “The Light That Failed,” “An Orchid,” and “Kid Klimax”—featuring sparse notes above middle C, screeching vocals, and slow tempo. “The Light That Failed?...
...where jangling guitars reminiscent of “Reckoning”-era Peter Buck lead into an infectious sing-along melody. The lyrics, as ever, veer for most of the album between the unintelligible and the nonsensical. At its best, however, the Spiral Stairs renders this criticism a minor quibble.

"Needless to say, they put on a very good show for us and we bought it," sheriff Alderden said. The Heenes could face six years in prison and a $500,000 fine on each of two felony counts. In the meantime, we can thank all the people who tried to help a child they thought in trouble; and pity those children; and pity, especially, the next child who needs our help, if we pause...
