About
The duo returned to their songwriting project in early 2005, first paying tribute to a recently departed dog (Dedications to Flea, a limited-edition release on the Brainwashed label) before pairing the disc with a dreamy, ambitious effort titled The Dream House. Following Weber's solo full-length I Hate People, Windy & Carl's fourth Kranky-affiliated effort, Songs for the Broken Hearted, appeared in 2008. During the time leading up to and directly following Songs for the Broken Hearted, the group experienced a surge of new listenership, sparked in part by successful Deerhunter frontman Bradford Cox repeatedly referencing in interviews how influential Windy & Carl's early recordings were to him. This piqued the curiosity of new fans and earned the record a broader audience and critical acclaim, with more media coverage than usual for the duo.
