PAS/CAL: I Was Raised on Matthew, Mark, Luke & Laura [Le Grand Magistery; 2008]Rating: 7.7
PAS/CAL are quick to please, but they sure take their sweet time revealing the full extent of their pleasures. The Detroit septet had an indie pop hit off their very first EP, 2003's The Handbag Memoirs, with sunny, urbane "The Bronze Beached Boys (Come on Let's Go)" eventually soundtracking a Saturn advertisement. Two more EPs, five years, and countless delayed release dates later, PAS/CAL's full-length debut, I Was Raised on Matthew, Mark, Luke & Laura, does Electric Light Orchestra baroqueness, Of Montreal schizophrenia, and Belle & Sebastian to rival any of its short-playing predecessors. You could go out tonight, but every stitch you'd have to wear is sewn into the music's eccentric finery.
