Looks like Jenny Lewis, et al. went and wrote a disco record. I'm only about halfway through it and so far it's my favorite thing of theirs I've heard. I can't tell how much influence Warner money has had yet - the title track is a little glossy sounding, and there are shades of...Fleetwood Mac, mabe? But still! It's got a funky beat, and I can dance to it.
I'm hearing some vocal harmonies that are a bit reminiscent of the Watson Twins' contribution to Jenny Lewis' terrific solo record, but outside of that, this is a very different beast.
"The Moneymaker" is the first single, but you'll probably be able to steal that from somewhere else on the internests, so take this one instead:
Rilo Kiley - "Close Call" [5.2mb]
edit: watch the video for "The Moneymaker". It's got porn starlets in it.
