Id

Musically, much of Id plays out like Animal Collective with an orchestral bent, or Why? Sticking to a soul groove.

Patches of twisted trumpet play with heavily affected backing vocals, twitchy synths, and a hip hop beat on early single "Rat", but it's Laufman's skipping delivery and oddball lyrics that stand out though out the album.

nsularity can make tracks blend together some, but Laufman's genre-collaging and quirky point of view make Id a compelling listen.
