by Iotis ErlewineThis excellent follow-up album from World Party is much tighter than the debut. Dealing with issues from the environment ("Take It Up,""Put the Message in the Box") to relationship woes ("And I Fell Back Alone"), these tracks manage to maintain a hopeful, positive mood without becoming trivial. In these songs, Wallinger has developed his own distinct style. A great album, worth checking out just for the uptempo groove of"Way Down Now."
