“Heartbreak hurts but you can dance it off,” Craig Finn sings, and you just know he’s right.- Eric R. It’s essentially a checklist of everything the band does well: enveloping guitar riff, fist-pump solo and vivid lyrics that set a scene while dispensing essential life lessons. The Hold Steady, “Spinners”Īfter an over-hasty victory lap on Heaven Is Whenever, “Spinners” was proof a-plenty that the Hold Steady had regained its focus for Teeth Dreams. The album is called Familiars and “Parade,” like many songs on the stunning LP, revels in that sentiment.- Philip Cosores 47.
Yeah, you normally wouldn’t associate the word fuck with something gorgeous, but there is a looseness to the song, aided by the woozy horn section and the tipsy vocals that adds up to something cozy and warm. On “Parade,” The Antlers’ Peter Silberman lets the f-bombs rain in a most beautiful way. But yeah, Perfect Pussy is totally music to kick down walls to.- Philip Cosores Referring to the aforementioned kicked wall, she concludes “I’ll break through it before I go.” Ideally, we’ll talk through the hole she creates, or we’ll kick through walls of our own. Graves leaves no doubt to where her journey will end. “Driver” allows the listeners to be both passengers on the journey and to take the wheel themselves. “Driver” isn’t so much a request for the listener to be a bystander, though, as it strikes a chord and resonates in its invitation to be a part of something, to facilitate changes in the norms. “Watch me, I’m kicking the wall,” Meredith Graves shouts at the opening of “Driver,” the closest thing to a standalone track on Perfect Pussy’s uppercut of a debut LP, Say Yes to Love.

Just another strange trip on an album full of them.- Mark Lore 49. The song’s title can be interpreted a number of ways, and the music will take you someplace else altogether. This instrumental off Total Control’s fantastic sophomore record is built on and propelled by a rigid bass line, which allows room for dripping synth noises and sneaky hi-hats to come at you out of the darkness.
