TUNNG - Good Arrows

This British group have made a subtle transition from introspective electronic music to a place that is slightly more upbeat and outwardly melodic. To the familiar, they have hardly become unrecognizable. Their love of samples and loops remains, everything is just a little more easy to sing along to now. The common complaint when any band undergoes this kind of adjustment is that they're hunting for accessibility. While Good Arrows will no doubt interest a new set of listeners, this album's charms are never cloying or forced. It simply has one hand kindly outstretched while the other obscures its methods.
