"Eisenberg's gaze breaks down big ideas into dozens of smaller ones, so that they wriggle free of your comprehension. You could call this process deconstruction or defamiliarization."
"On their new album, Eisenberg looks very closely. Take this lyric, from the rapt ballad 'It's Here': 'Something's losing its meaning/Someone's holding my hand/Come on, look at me learning/There is comfort in demand.'"
