Album Review: Lights – Midnight Machines
Despite being an electro-pop sensation, Lights is no stranger to acoustic albums.

Despite being an electro-pop sensation, Lights is no stranger to acoustic albums.
For a French/Canadian emerging metal band, they aren’t doing too shabby for their fourth studio release; and their newest album ‘Predilections’ proves it.
Manchester’s The 1975 aren’t known for common sounds, but on their latest release I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it they take that to another level. Employing a myriad of genres should make for chaos, but their shared dreamy indie-electronic undertones give the album a united front. Maybe it’s a mess, but it’s a well done one.
Listening to new music can sometimes feel like déjà vu; many bands tend to stay within the comfortable bubble of their genre. Waterparks’ EP Cluster burst that bubble and the outcome is five songs that are both refreshing and infectious.
5 Seconds of Summer are back with an album that will have you in a whirlwind trying to categorize it into a genre.

You will come out of Blurryface a little shaken up with your view of music and the world overall a little bit shifted. But ultimately, what you will feel is satisfaction.
After all these years, there are a few skeptics out there thinking that Instant Gratification is simply a final soundtrack to a fading band. Dance Gavin Dance proves them incredibly wrong.
Talking In Your Sleep crushes all uncertainties and proves this powerful collaboration, with a brazen aptitude for musical experimentation, is certainly a force to be reckoned with.
