Is it the music that makes bands great — or the “situations”?

Forewarned is forearmed, especially when the choruses come this big

Every reference you pick up on opens a new horizon

What sounds like two guitars overlaid in the studio is all coming from him

The adrenaline flows when you’re relying on your wits to save you from national humiliation

A pop song can be transformed by use, or it can split the world open

There’s a reassurance in new shoots and the proof that life goes on

Father John Misty has faked his way into a kind of blazing honesty

The only band I’ve seen and wish I’d been paying attention to
