Carrier

The Dodos

Intricate electric guitar patterns and syncopated drumming meet a heavy, autumnal sense of loss. A patient, rhythmically complex meditation on grief and memory.

A disciplined, rhythmic meditation on loss that feels like watching a storm clear from a distance.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition from the intricate, interlocking guitar loops into the soaring, melodic release of the chorus on Transformer.
The sudden, skeletal intimacy of the brief instrumental interlude Holidays that resets the album's emotional gravity.
The way the percussion on The Ocean mimics the relentless, crashing pull of the tide against a fragile vocal melody.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
