From the beginning, the project was as underground as is possible in the digital age. Every live show was dramatically unlike the last, as were the frequently-released, self-realized recordings. Jones was joined by different collaborators in versions of the band that manifested as noisy soundscapes, scenic chamber pop, or icy coldwave-adjacent synth-pop, often released on opaquely-designed, ultra-limited albums named after favorite film directors. These early phases captured the curiosity\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e of a small but fixated group of fans worldwide, and the way Constant Smiles moved through the weird trajectory of their first decade made them feel like a closely guarded secret happening outside of the machinery of the music industry. A move to New York and a few records on Sacred Bones resulted in more people becoming aware of the band, but Jones and friends remained in constant flux.

A more intuitive kind of chemistry overwrote the searching energy of earlier output. With Knight and Currier providing counterpoint and structure to Jones’ always percolating creative drive, the songs became more streamlined and direct. The anxious buzzing that had been present in even the slowest songs uncoiled a little bit, and the band took on a tone that was more intentional, even observational. Still airy and dream-like, the trio version of Constant Smiles that produced Moonflowers has cleared away the clouds of vaguity and uncertainty that could make earlier versions of the band feel harder to connect with. Emotions once on display but always at a distance are now exhibited clearly, spoken plainly, and open to consideration by anyone who encounters them.
