New York City alt-rockers Plight Announce Self-Titled Sophomore Album, Out June 13 via α La Carte Records and Pleasure Tapes. PlightÆs second album doesnÆt just build on their debutùit reconstructs it from the ground up. The self-titled follow-up to Plastic Sun sees the band refining their sonic identity, fusing the anthemic crunch of æ90s power-pop with the atmospheric sweep of classic emo. Think the earnest melancholy of Sunny Day Real Estate colliding with the jagged hooks of Seaweed, all funneled through a raw and immediate energy that feels distinctly their own. Plightùrounded out by Matt Curtis (Guitar/Vocals), Anthony Perry (Guitar), Alden Farrar (Bass), and Andy Rapp (Drums)ùpush their songwriting into deeper, more dynamic territory. Urgent, melodic, and brimming with restless momentum, the album channels the nervy catharsis of bands like Archers of Loaf and Treepeople while carving out a space that feels both nostalgic and forward-thinking. PlightÆs latest effort doesnÆt wallow in nostalgia so much as it weaponizes it, distilling the spirit of a bygone era into something vital and immediate. The guitars shimmer and snarl, the hooks are razor-sharp, and CurtisÆ vocals weave between contemplative and commanding. From the slow burn of ôSave Yourselfö to the kinetic urgency of ôLate Shift,ö this is a record that feels lived-inùfull of longing, tension, and fleeting moments of clarity. Plight arenÆt just revisiting the pastùtheyÆre reinterpreting it in real-time, filtering their influences through a modern lens and emerging with something urgent, hook-filled, and deeply human. With Plight, they deliver a record that hums with electricity, the kind of album that gets under your skin and stays there. The album will be available on 12ö vinyl and CD via α La Carte Records, and on cassette through Pleasure Tapes.
