Classics”” remains resolutely instrumental, but the band has introduced a wealth of new sounds, from acoustic and slide guitar to sleigh bells and cello. Their vastly improved production and writing makes this record a refinement of their art. “”Ratatat lay squealing metal harmonies over choppy Neptunes-style dance thumps, then break into pastoral waves of keyboard tone, riding dub tempos and hip-hop struts. They”re crotch-pumping arena pimps and introverted minimalists…”” – Blender. “”Stroud and Mast have come up with some catchy melodies over light, snappy bass lines in what sounds like something tailored for the headphones”” – Urb. The band has toured with Interpol, the Killers, Franz Ferdinand, the Stills, and Mouse on Mars.
