More Adventurous by Rilo Kiley
Although Rilo Kiley was somewhat overshadowed by Death Cab for Cutie and other similar acts in 2005, they really deserve to be more widely heard, as More Adventurous
“Portions for Foxes” is the clear stand-out hit here, and while no other song approaches it in quality, “It’s a Hit,” “Accidental Death” and “A Man/Me/Then Jim” more than justify the purchase of the CD.
Although much of More Adventurous is smooth well-tuned modern pop, hints of Jenny Lewis’ future more folksy solo project turn up here and there, including in “I Never,” which is a cowboy hat and a steel guitar away from being a hit country single.
A recommended purchase for fans of Death Cab for Cutie, the Postal Service or even Sons and Daughters.
