Album Notes
Guster: Ryan Miller, Adam Gardner (vocals, guitar); Joe Pisapia (various instruments); Brian Rosenworcel (percussion).
Recording information: Allaire, Shokan, New York; Sound Emporium, Nashville, Tennessee (01/2005 - 04/2005).
Don't waste your time listening for bongos here. GANGING UP ON THE SUN sees Guster moving far beyond the groovy college-radio reputation that made them such campus favorites. Admittedly, there are still a few bongos, but this disc continues the progression begun on KEEP IT TOGETHER into a realm of eclectic, countrified guitar-pop.
"Satellite" opens with a strummed acoustic guitar, bubbling bass lines, and a snaking keyboard riff before Ryan Miller's moody melody enters. Before the song is done, there will be distorted guitars, harmonica, organ, and as rich a sound as Guster has achieved so far. "One Man Wrecking Machine" is a nostalgic lament anchored by a full drum kit, with chunky guitar lines and a perfect alt/indie chorus. This album presents a dizzying variety of new faces for the band, all connected by Guster's melodic pop instincts and quirky sensibility.

Editorial Reviews
4 out of 5 -- [L]ayers of rich sound -- barroom piano, crunchy guitars, billowing horns and muted keyboards -- envelop SUN's songs with warmth.
Alternative Press

GANGING UP is both expansive and dreamy, while the track RUBY FALLS comes off as positively psychedelic... -- Grade: B+
Entertainment Weekly

3 stars out of 5 -- [T]he now incorporate Echoplex and swirling organs. With the bands' pop instincts craftier than ever...
