It's A Safe Bet To Expect The Unexpected In Regards To Any New Lambchop Effort But The Cryptically Titled And Beautifully Packaged What Another Man Spills Is The Band's Most Consistently Surprising And Deliriously Eclectic Outing To Date With New Twists Around Every Corner. While It's Their Loveliest Record Since How I Quit Smoking That Album's Countrypolitan Gauze Is Largely A Thing Of The Past Replaced Here By A Dreamy Jazz-Like Patina Which Proves A Remarkably Versatile Backdrop Not Only For Kurt Wagner's Originals But For A Vast Range Of Covers From Dump's "It's Not Alright" To Curtis Mayfield's "Give Me Your Love Love Song ." The Latter Is Easily The Most Jaw-Dropping Track On What Another Man Spills With The Group Easily Slipping Into The Song's Soulful Groove Without A Hint Of Irony Not Even In Wagner's Amazingly Prince-Like Falsetto A Later Cover Of The Frederick Knight Smash "I've Been Lonely For So Long " While Less Surprising Is No Less Engaging Further Solidifying Lambchop's Growing Debt To The Stax/Volt Sound. Where The Album's Jumble Of Styles And Offbeat Covers Might Seem Self-Indulgent Coming From Any Other Band Lambchop Somehow Makes It All Work With Their Wit Style And Intelligence Intact -- Even Five Records In They Never Cease To Amaze.
