Moment Bends might disappoint those who expected a continuation of the more playful, Talking Heads channeling sound of Places Like This. Nonetheless, Moment Bends maintains much of the same quirky style, just with heavy, unapologetic doses of synthesizer. Though there are some fun danceable tracks like “Escapee,” “Denial Style,” “That Beep,” the sample-ready pop may be too sweet for certain palates. That said, “Contact High” is a welcome addition to your morning underwear romp playlist. An anthem of sorts, “Everything Blues” stirs up images of a gang of tight-leather clad youths in an empty warehouse looking tough, only to suddenly break out into a choreographed dance routine.

I agree, this album is a bit of a departure from their previous hyperactivity.
I am definitely a fan of "Contact High" and "Everything's Blue."
I'm totally entertained and curious to see if Brasilliant likes this. Awmercy, can you ask her?
P.S., I am talking about the song...
