Album NotesAfter releasing three children's albums in five years, They Might Be Giants got back to their longtime blend of geek-rock and quirky pop with an "adult" EP in early 2011, followed later that summer by this full-length album. Those who initially purchased the EP, whose songs also appeared on Join Us, were allowed to complete the record for no charge.
Editorial ReviewsCMJ JOIN US is a collection of short songs -- only two songs last longer than three minutes -- which allows the Johns to inhabit a range of different personalities and styles.The songs are novel in both conception and execution....JOIN US is always fun, consciously clever and catchy...Paste 3 stars out of 5 -- The staccato power-pop of 'You Probably Get That A Lot' is a delightfully coy and fumbling chat-up....[The album] keeps them cruising along at a nifty pace.Record Collector 3.5 stars out of 5 -- This time, they've gone more playfully experimental....'Canajoharie' has one of Linnell's catchiest choruses ever.Rolling Stone Their wit keeps maturing, but TMBG's gentle weirdness is forever young.Spin eBay Product ID: EPID103009954
