The : :' impressionistic cover art of the bandÆs eponymous debut ': ,: full-length (2017) depicts a serene riverbed flush with dreamy :, : hues of purple and green. It evokes a sense of tranquility that : :' diametrically opposes their clamorous homebase of NYC, and the ': ,: recordÆs mostly breezyùthough occasionally blusteryùsongset is :, : equally uncharacteristic of the environment it was born of. ItÆs : :' not that their music perpetually idles, or thatÆs itÆs soft in ': ,: a simplistic way. They just move at their own pace. A patient :, : pace. A very deliberate pace thatÆs, however unintentional, at : :' odds with both their city and their position in rockÆs ': ,: timeline. :, : : :' On their brand new follow-up Yolk In The Fur, Wild Pink again ': ,: take themselves and their listeners to a place of sonic :, : placidity. Ross and his bandmates trade what sparing crunch they : :' did use on Wild Pink for lush, balmy synths that lift their ': ,: sound upwards and out, rather than forward and down. Any traces :, : of slowcore and grunge are gone here, replaced by the angelic : :' airiness of Cocteau Twins and Red House Painters, but with the ': ,: modern crispness of LAKE or Japanese Breakfast. Sporadic :, : splashes of electronic drums and emphasized basslines add : :' fascinating new dimensions to their already-diverse palette, ': ,: but no instrument or tone ever feels shoehorned in. Each part is :, : stitched seamlessly into the other, and the bandÆs aptitude for : :' unexpected changeups is only heightened with the ability to ': ,: shift from artificial to natural instrumentation. :, : : :' Although itÆs both the shortest and most straightforward cut in ': ,: the tracklist, closer ôAll Some FrenchmanÆs Jokeö is a :, : satisfying thematic knot for what Ross says is an album about : :' ôprotecting something vulnerable.ö ôLetting go of youth after ': ,: the time is due/feels like relief/like when something stuck is :, : freed,ö he sings. To call this album a maturation for Wild Pink : :' is to not only recycle a long-frayed cliche, but to neglect the ': ,: musical and lyrical wiseness they already possessed on their :, : debut. But if Ross really did quell an existential crisis during : :' the making of Yolk In The Fur, and managed to finally scrub the ': ,: gunk clean, the fresh coat that grew back took form as one of :, : the purest, fleeciest, most lavish rock albums of 2018. : :' ': : ' '.. ..' .. . :........... . . . . ............: . . ______________ ______________ \ / \ / \ / Shout out to all our homies from: \ / \ / \ / \ / iPC BOSS HiT2000 1way UKi i8 RNS \ / \ / RAGEMP3 MANDY DV8 pLAN9 BUTT \ / \ / \ / \/ ____ ____ \/ \ / F A N G \ / \/ 2 0 1 8 \/
