  Where Mono is ragged and loud, Stereo is thoughtful and bruised. “Baby Learns to Crawl,” “Only Lie Worth Telling,” and “Got You Down” sound casual on the surface, but the songwriting is full of wit, regret, and self-interrogation. "Call That Gone?" seems to end things before the record comes back to life with a staggering cover of 80s lost class "Postcards From Paradise". Throughout, Westerberg makes aging sound complicated rather than tragic.
