Every Kind of Light cranks up the amps a notch on tracks like "All In a Day's Work" and "Second Time Around", and even has a bit of a classic rock feel on some of the tracks, especially "I Finally Found a Jungle I like!!!" Mostly, though, The Posies stick with the sound they've made a career out of, which includes jangly, hook-laden pop anthems with an indie flare. Absent is much of the vocal interplay between vocalists Ken Stringfellow and Jon Auer that we heard on previous efforts, especially on many a fan's favorite Dear 23. While this isn't quite Dear 23 part two, it holds it's own, and finds the band expanding their sound, which would seem a natural thing to do after being away for so long. Every Kind of Light is a "grower"; after repeated listens different elements start creeping out of the shadows, introducing themselves to you like the brother you never had, and some things like the brother you wished you never had.
