In an era when every band seems to spend more time designing merchandise and adding friends to their MySpace page than making art, Nurses have thankfully beenverse rhythm that will surely remind some of Kid A era Radiohead and a chorus piano "bounce" that Black Heart Procession might have written. "Hungry Mouth" has the traditional verse-chorus-verse structure, but also the uncommon melody palette that may remind people of The Decemberists or Arcade Fire. "(Wait for) a safe sign" opens with a verse that will make Q and Not U fans a little misty for the good old days leading to a chorus with a vocal hook that would give Freddie Mercury more wood than a men's gymnastics competition. Despite the disparity of these comparatives, the album does not come across even remotely disjointed, but manages to be a complete artistic expression. "The album is held together because the same basic creative process made all of the songs. Aaron would propose a skeletal version of the chord changes and melody then we would all elaborate and transform the song into its final state."
