âLifeboat Candidate,â Palm Ghosts (Ice Queen Records)
If ever there was a need for some good dystopian pop, 2021 is the year. And thankfully Palm Ghosts heard the call.
The bandâs eight-track âLifeboat Candidateâ finds Palm Ghosts in a more propulsive, muscular rock mood, with tons more biting shards of guitar, arpeggiated synths and pulsating drums. Itâs richer, with more textures and represents a great evolution.
If Palm Ghosts in the past veered from sounding like The Psychedelic Furs to Bob Mould with a dash of chilly paranoia from The National, this time theyâre charting a distinct, coherent sound, albeit in heavy debt to â80s new wave.
