Going into this review, I had felt
as if I had reviewed Porcelain Raft before.
I felt certain there was a Porcelain Raft album in either 2011 or 2012 I
tried to take a crack at writing about.
The fact that I couldn’t find said review in the archives made me think
that I wasn’t going to like this.
I was wrong. I do like this album. It’s dreamgaze. It’s electro-synth. It’s funky and soulful. It has hints of Fatboy Slim. It could be The Rocket Summer as well. I even think it’s a better version of
Coldplay.
Oh, and yeah, even the Spotify bio
mentions that this new album here takes a turn from what this band normally
sounds like, so I guess I’m not losing my mind (that much) to think that I didn’t
like this band at one point but now I somehow do.
Yes, this band has apparently
changed their sound for the better. No,
I will not go back and listen to their older music again to be reminded of what
I didn’t enjoy about it.
