Recording information: 2001 - 2003.

In the wake of their breakthrough album, YOU FORGOT IT IN PEOPLE, Toronto's Broken Social Scene released this compilation of B-sides, alternate versions, and previously unreleased songs. Fans dreading a mixed bag of lo-fi thrashing and half-finished demos can relax, as this collection coheres in a nicely mellow way that shows how the pop brilliance of PEOPLE connects to the largely instrumental outing FEEL GOOD LOST.

Most of the music here consists of multi-guitar drone, burbling synths, and live drum breaks, a combination that makes the Scene one of the more lovely and accessible post-rock outfits. "hHallmark" sounds like it could find a home with Yo La Tengo, while the chimes and plucking of "Ambulance for the Ambience" recalls Aphex Twin in a good mood. Only two of the tracks have vocals: "Backyards" features Emily Haines (Metric), who adds a warm earthy touch to the avant-garde backdrop, while the other reconfigures "Lover's Spit" (from PEOPLE) with a mournful piano and Leslie Feist's heartbreaking singing. "Time = Cause" gets a boost from a Mick Jagger-style yowl that eventually drifts into the void with the rest of the noises, forming one beautiful, shimmering, droning whole.
