Swapping their signature sound of energetic if rather workaday retro-funk for sophisticated pop-soul songs fronted by guest vocalists including Aloe Blacc, Daniel Merriweather, Tim Rogers and the semi-regular Kylie Auldist, Melbourne's Bamboos take a definite leap forward.
But why on earth did they spoil the party by going back to their old style for a distinctly pedestrian second track, "What I Know"? It's two-thirds pretty good, all the same.
