Anxious post-punk return
Brittle, interlocking guitar lines and a dry, punchy rhythm section define this anxious return. The lush, tropical-themed disco of their previous record is replaced by a nervous, post-punk-inspired tension that mirrors the agoraphobia of re-emerging into a hostile world. It is a highly disciplined, rhythmic space where frantic, spoken-word chanting and breathful, intimate whispers take the place of easy pop-rock anthems.
The writing leans far further into social commentary than the rest of the catalogue.
