A decade passed since Jeremy Enigk, lead singer of Sunny Day Real Estate and the Fire Theft, released his last solo album, Return of the Frog Queen. And in ten years it's natural, expected, desired even, that one will mature, that one's musical tastes and influences may expand or change, so it's not so strange that Enigk's sophomore record is not an exact copy of his debut. What is strange, however, is how different it actually is. While Return of the Frog Queen was chamber pop and struck acoustic chords, World Waits is soft arpeggioed electric guitars, sweeping violins, and droning keyboards. Enigk sounds like a mixture of Peter Gabriel, U2, Sarah McLachlan, and a little bit of Elf Power. ~ Marisa Brown, All Music Guide
