The Los Angeles band Rilo Kiley stormed the indie scene in the late '90s. They peppered their charming lo-fi pop and shimmering folk songs with witty asides and ironic sing-alongs, as on “August” and “The Good That Won't Come Out”. Then—using singer/guitarist Jenny Lewis' crystalline alto and Blake Sennett's knack for crafting tight hooks—they blossomed into the go-to band for explosive indie rock, evident in the slick production and chart-friendly chorus of “Portions for Foxes” and the hand-clapping pop exuberance of “Silver Lining”.
