Where You Stand (August 20), recorded in Berlin and produced by Michael Ilbert (The Hives/The Cardigans), pretty much picks up where they left off: XL-sized alt-pop melodies kept in check with smarts, a healthy smidgen of grit and the kind of sympatico interplay honed over a half-dozen albums and hundreds of live shows.
