Swim is the record Caribou mastermind Dan Snaith has wanted to bring to fruition for as long as he has been making music. A mathematics scholar and an ingenious multi-instrumentalist/composer, he surprised critics and fans with 2007's Andorra, a brilliant, electro-tinged pop breakthrough with a timeless grace that made most year-end "Best of" lists and won Canada's prestigious Polaris Music Prize. After the startling infectiousness of Andorra, Swim is a more complex, multi-layered affair, rife with fascinating rhythms, instrumentation, and vocals (including those of Born Ruffians' Luke Lalonde, who appears on "Jamelia"), that becomes more alluring with each listen.
This may not be the most accessible album of the year, but it is one of the best. It's a complex dance album that isn't really for casual listening. Seeing this band makes it even better since there are sounds that are easier to appreciate in sight than in sound. Don't steal that.
