Sidewalks is the third studio album by American duo Matt & Kim, consisting of keyboardist and vocalist Matt Johnson and drummer Kim Schifino. It follows their previous studio album Grand (2009), which the usage of its songs in commercials and TV series and the music video for "Lessons Learned" gained the duo popularity. Sidewalks continues Matt & Kim's basic and high-energy dance-punk synthpop style, but with a higher-fidelity sound courtesy of being recorded in professional studios instead of being self-recorded as was the case with their prior albums. Sidewalks was produced by Ben H. Allen and Oliver Straus. Sidewalks was released on November 2, 2010 on Fader Label, and was promoted with single releases and music videos for "Cameras" and "Block After Block", directed by Jonathan Del Gatto. The received mixed reviews from music critics, the duo's upbeat tone was once again noted although was heavily criticized for the studio-quality production diluting the band's signature harsh punk personality. It reached number 30 on the Billboard 200 chart and the top ten of Billboard's Independent Albums, Top Rock Albums and Alternative Albums chart.
