Shunning old-school studio sessions, she embraces her Californian bedroom's hard drive splicing tools. At least this is the public face she chooses to display as tUnE-yArDs. This second tUnE-yArDs album advances the concept of rampant collision, hiking the extremities up to a further level.

ReviewsRanked #13 in Rolling Stone's '50 Best Albums Of 2011' -- "A joyous, idea-stuffed album built on a stream of horns, loops, ukulele riffs and skeletal dance grooves...", "Everything has an elastic bouncy quality that is hard to achieve with looping drums and a ukulele....Just as Brian Wilson created pocket symphonies, WHOKILL has pocket power ballads.", Ranked #44 in Uncut's '50 Best Albums Of 2011' -- "The gusto with which she mixed and matched global musics, often relying on her own eclectic voice, made a virtue of that eccentricity...", Ranked #14 in Magnet's '20 Best Albums Of 2011' -- "A giddily hypnotic kind of avant pop....It's a joy to listen to...", Ranked #30 in Spin's 'The Top 40 Albums Of 2011' -- "Amid the uproar, Garbus tackles issues of class, race, and sexuality with hardheaded intelligence.", "The structured, strummy track 'Powa' showcases Garbus' immense vocal range from dulcet whispers to Robert Plant-like caterwaul."
