It might feel a bit odd to use the word "gorgeous" to describe an album that is bombastic, is arena-worthy, contains screams and shouts galore...but that's what this is. Exists at the glorious center of the Venn diagram with sad, pretty songs (7 Kettles, In the Backseat) coexisting with concert-ready singalongs (Power Out, Wake Up), and when the two are combined, the results are magical. The opener here, Tunnels, exemplifies resilience in the face of tragedy over a lovely guitar and a driving rhythm section, and the penultimate track Rebellion (Lies) repays the favor with a constant bass and piano that attempt to fight off the concept of sleep itself. Couldn't be prettier if it tried, couldn't be better-suited to its subject matter, and couldn't leave you more exhilarated facing the ultimate emptiness.
90+ tracks: Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels), Rebellion (Lies), Neighborhood #3 (Power Out), Wake Up, In the Backseat [First added to this chart: 04/11/2024]
