(Dead Ocean)

Jaunty theatrics disguise first-person curiosity inside musical group therapy as Mitski.pitches beautiful arrangements and live ensembles with cerebral glee and bouncy lounge teases.
The โIf I Leaveโ video is at once stunning, unsettling, and darkly funny. Set in a house breathing with menace and history, each room carries its own traces of the lives and eerie moments it once contained. Mitski and members of her band perform within these spooky spaces with calm indifference...

Alien planets landscaped in final chapters and turned pages, singer-songwriter, synthesist Lala Lalaโs sequenced ecosystems color thoughts and shift feelings chattering in spectacularly elastic pageantry with
hurtle moody absolutes draped in fire-escape bass, crumbling drums and chain-link guitars. Plausible melancholyโs raw beauty blooms in foggy confusion as the London quartetโs timid beginnings fuel brazen post-rock hazes, dynamic dialectics fostering piercing lyrics and complex quests.
