   █▓    I once claimed Growing were the most misleadingly named band     ▓█
   █▓    this side of Death Cab for Cutie-- besides shrinking from a      ▓█
   █▓    trio to a duo, had these Brooklyn-by-way-of-Olympia              ▓█
   █▓    drone-rockers ever actually evolved? A colleague called me out   ▓█
   █▓    on this, and he was right. I fished out a copy of Growing's      ▓█
   █▓    2003 album The Sky's Run Into the Sea, and was reminded of how   ▓█
   █▓    far they've come, through diverse incarnations of ambient,       ▓█
   █▓    noise, and drone-based music, to achieve the mature style that   ▓█
   █▓    had erased their earlier works from my memory. "Cutting,         ▓█
   █▓    Opening, Swimming" hinted at the color-saturated walls of sound  ▓█
   █▓    with which they're now synonymous, but was light on              ▓█
   █▓    subterranean motion, and elsewhere, they tinkered with smaller,  ▓█
   █▓    more rickety bobbins and more indeterminate structures than      ▓█
   █▓    you'll find in their current output.                             ▓█
   █▓                                                                     ▓█
   █▓    Maybe my error was somewhat understandable. All the Way          ▓█
   █▓    concludes a conceptual arc that spans three albums (four, if     ▓█
   █▓    you count the Lateral EP), beginning with 2006's not-at-all      ▓█
   █▓    misleadingly titled Color Wheel. If newer Growing made me        ▓█
   █▓    forget about older Growing, that speaks to the obliterative      ▓█
   █▓    power of their recent music. These three albums are              ▓█
   █▓    superficially monolithic enough that they could have emanated    ▓█
   █▓    from the same recording session. Growing found their spirit      ▓█
   █▓    animal-- their gaudy, squirming compositions always make me      ▓█
   █▓    think of some psychedelic caterpillar-- and rode off into a      ▓█
   █▓    tie-dyed sky. Armed with guitar, bass, loop station, Ebow, and   ▓█
   █▓    sundry effects boxes, they erected garish bulwarks of hotwired   ▓█
   █▓    glitch, with towering major chords jutting out like flying       ▓█
   █▓    buttresses, and long, tense loops sliding in and out of phase.   ▓█
   █▓                                                                     ▓█
   █▓    And even within this monolithic trilogy, All the Way             ▓█
   █▓    distinguishes itself: Never before has Growing so prominently    ▓█
   █▓    emphasized stomping melody and kinetic rhythm. They're this      ▓█
   █▓    close to being a rock band while still sounding like their       ▓█
   █▓    weird selves, which makes this their most accessible album to    ▓█
   █▓    date. They way they blend the haywire and the anthemic often     ▓█
   █▓    sounds like Black Dice trying to be Ratatat. "Green Flag"        ▓█
   █▓    sprays a guitar line across the stereo channels in choppy        ▓█
   █▓    flecks-- I'm not sure about the hardware involved, but you       ▓█
   █▓    could achieve a reasonable facsimile with a cheap Boss           ▓█
   █▓    sampler's "slicer" effect-- and pads them with intestinal        ▓█
   █▓    gurgles and whizzes (the intestine is another inescapable        ▓█
   █▓    metaphor for Growing's music, which always conveys a feeling of  ▓█
   █▓    linear, peristaltic motion). The shimmering, filter-swept        ▓█
   █▓    "Wrong Ride" is a beatless approximation of funk; "Innit"        ▓█
   █▓    performs the same alchemical transformation on beveled           ▓█
   █▓    Euro-synth techno. "Rave Pie Only" makes processed guitars act   ▓█
   █▓    like metronomic percussion, marking time for the damaged lead    ▓█
   █▓    and climactic raygun battle. Throughout it all, a formerly       ▓█
   █▓    suppressed thrum percolates right on the surface, making this    ▓█
   █▓    cruising music for Brian Eno fans-- no mean feat for a band      ▓█
   █▓    that, like many others in their milieu, began as sculptors of    ▓█
   █▓    wisps and vapors before hitting their thunderous stride.         ▓█
   █▓                                                                     ▓█
