Upon first listen, 'Structure' - with its tendency to turn on a dime from the buzzsaw synths and string arrangements that sonically bookend tracks like 'My Love's', to the subtle, almost Squarepusher-esque rhythms that round out electronic compositions like ''Quotations''- may just seem like a further refinement of the duo's idiosyncratic approach to making music. However, repeat listens will reveal that, even though the album zigs and zags in a manner consistent with WFYE's prior releases, its line of best fit trends in a very clear direction away from the quaint affectations of their prior work and towards something more deliberate and half a shade darker. Even on ostensibly cheery tracks like album opener 'When You're Around', which, with its saccharine melodicism sounds like it could be
a lost song from The Apples in Stereo or one of their Elephant 6-era labelmates, there's an underlying eeriness that's not immediately apparent until the song is listened to in the context of the full album.
