| | Album Notes and Credits | Notes & Personnel Info |  | Rilo Kiley: Blake Sennett (vocals, guitar); Jenny Lewis (vocals, bass); Amy Huffman (violin); Gretta Cohn (cello); Rick Ricker (French horn); Jason Boesel (drums); Kristen Bailey (saw). |  | On Rilo Kiley's second album, they move beyond the meat-and-potatoes arrangements of 2001's TAKE OFFS AND LANDINGS, adding splashes of electronics and tasteful touches of strings and winds. The structure of the band's songs takes a step forward as well. Where their first album revolved largely around a blend of sprightly indie-pop and a sunny folk-rock sensibility, THE EXECUTION OF ALL THINGS widens the playing field considerably. |  | Jenny Lewis's vocals, full of breezy innocence on the band's debut album, adopt a darker tone here, bespeaking all manner of disturbing emotions lurking just below the surface. On tracks like "A Better Son/Daughter," her voice is enriched by effects that add a distancing quality, further enhancing the feeling of a band setting out for new territory. That said, there's still a fair amount of gentle guitar picking and winsome melodies on display here, maintaining just the right balance between comfort and invention. |
| | Artist Overview | | Rilo Kiley is a pop four-piece formed in Los Angeles in the late 1990s by Blake Sennett and former child actress Jenny Lewis. The band plays an effortless brand of sing-song pop/rock shot through with hints of Americana and songbook stylings. After self-releasing their first two albums, Rilo Kiley quickly climbed the music industry ladder, recording for the esteemed Omaha indie Saddle Creek and later gaining a major-label distribution deal for 2004's again self-released MORE ADVENTUROUS. Lewis released her debut solo album in 2006, while Sennett continued to work with his side band, the Elected. |

| | Professional Reviews | | Entertainment Weekly (11/8/02, p.107) - "...A fine album by an any standard....[Jenny Lewis] is a sharp lyricist with a dirty mouth and a sweet voice..." - Rating: A-Uncut (6/03, p.114) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...LA's Rilo Kiley haven't lost their capacity for self-criticism. The folk-pop quartet flash brazen humour on the title track..." |
