Figure skating is already a strenuous and exciting activity, but it gets even more exciting when you can tear up the ice wearing Timberlands and Converse-style skates.

"I wouldn't want anyone to feel uncomfortable with what I'm doing, but if that's a casualty...
...layered loudness. But after the fairly boring “Break in Case of Anything,” “Infinifold” closes the disc with a slow, melodic shift that could be on the soundtrack of “Garden State” for its over-the-top effort to elicit emotion. Despite its obvious goal, “Myth Takes” is not so much hit or miss as either dance-commanding or mildly acrid. That’s the catch of looping disco-punk beats, after all, but it doesn’t mean...
