The Folk Implosion's second album from 1997 catches Lou Barlow and John Davis pushing their cracked lo-fi songwriting into something sharper, hookier and more rhythmically sly. Dare To Be Surprised still has the duo's homemade edge, but the melodies hit harder and the drum-machine pulse feels more confident all the way through.

Pole Position, Burning Paper and Wide Web give the record its quick hit of off-centre pop, while One Part Lullaby and Ride Ride Ride stretch that mood into something dreamier and more bruised. This remastered white vinyl edition is a strong way back into one of the most distinctive indie records of the late 1990s.
