In their hometown of Portland, Oregon, The Shaky Hands are the one band that virtually everyone agrees on. Respected throughout the underground for their basement show originsand complete lack of ego, critically adored for their instantly recognizable, earthy-meetsexplosive sound and loved by the general populace for putting on really, really good shows-they represent Portland, one of America's best music cities, as well as any contemporary indie rock act. The Shaky Hands' self-titled debut, released in 2007, was a fantastic snapshot of the energetic young band discovering itself. Nick Delffs' vibrato-infused, homespun vocals and bobbing acoustic guitar strums complement Colin Anderson's organic, driving percussion while Jeff Lehman's own guitar rockouts remind listeners that The Shaky Hands were, after all, a rock band. The album approximates the irresistibly frenetic Shaky Hands live experience, which finds frontman Nick Delffs stomping and galloping across the stage, occasionally running directly into bassist Mayhaw Hoons' wildly swinging curly red hair.

Where the Hands' debut was jangly and upbeat, prompting visions of long summer days spent lounging on the front porch, "Lunglight" lives in a slightly darker space. Tracks like "Neighbors" and "Love All Of" add a sheen of Doors' psychedelia to The Shaky Hands' early Talking Heads-influenced sound, with Nick Delffs looking increasingly inward for lyrical inspiration. On "World Gone Mad," perhaps the darkest and most driving Shaky Hands song recorded to date, Delffs sings "See it coming / In his eyes/ You better stay where/ You can hide," and feedback flies like shrapnel around the verse. But that's not to...
