In her review today of Department of Eagles' fine In Ear Park, Amanda Petrusich calls the album "Ambitious and complex... stuffed with cocooning harmonies and shimmering, sunlight-smacking-the-Pacific melodies-- a languid, easy West Coast record (think Randy Newman or SMiLE), infused with classic East Coast anxiety." Nowhere on the album is this tension more manifest than on "No One Does It Like You", an alternate version of which is heard here on a rooftop in the second part of the band's appearance on "Don't Look Down". Working with Chris Taylor and Christopher Bear of Grizzly Bear, DoE started yesterday with versions of the title track and "Around the Bay" and close out this phenomenal set with the non-album track "1997", below.
