Supermodel

Foster the People

A pivot from synth-pop to gritty, psychedelic indie rock. Layered with desert-baked guitars, West African rhythms, and lyrics exploring the cost of modern fame.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive, fuzzed-out shoegaze wall of sound that swallows the melody halfway through Pseudologia Fantastica.
The shift from the driving, polyrhythmic percussion of the opener into the more introspective, acoustic-led verses of Ask Yourself.
The haunting, isolated vocal performance on the closing track Fire Escape, recorded with a starkness that contrasts the rest of the album.
