"Every spark of friendship and love/ Will die without a home," he yelps on Intervention, one of the happier tunes. Plenty of candidates for rock's next big voice mistook darkness for depth early on (listened to any '70s Springsteen lately?), and you get the sense Butler will outgrow it, since the band's melodies already have. Black Mirror and Keep the Car Running take flight on guitar, harp, hurdy-gurdy and a chorus of voices that...

Perhaps inspired by the latest “Pirates of the Caribbean” flick, the age-old story of man vs. fish comes through with...

And so they will wave their hands and affectionately call out their pet name for their dad - "Hey! Bull Walrus!" - as if he were sleeping on a big rock near the Arctic Sea. And then he'll come...
