Mariel Roberts sits in on cello as a guest.
The record got a second wind the next spring: "Handlebars" caught on at modern rock radio in April 2008, the album was reissued that May, and it went on to reach number 15 on the Billboard 200. Critics were mildly warm, singling out the production and the seriousness of what the songs had to say.
