The Australian groupâs ambitious third album overflows with ideas, samples, guests, and sheer stimuli. In their sparkling music, every sound feels like a treasured memory.
Life, death, and the cosmos set the boundaries of the Avalanchesâ ambitious third album,
We Will Always Love You. The record begins with a farewell voicemailâa final communication, we are led to believe, from a young woman who has passed awayâand it ends with the Morse code-like bleeping of the Arecibo Message, an interstellar transmission carrying information on the human species into the infinite beyond. In between those poles, the Australian group continues doing what it has always done: spinning the sounds of disco, soul, easy listening, and other nostalgic staples into luminous, ludic shapes, turning musical collage into a sparkling, four-dimensional fantasyland.
