Palomar - All Things, Forests

Everyone knows what it means when you say an album is “a grower”. But, it couldpalomar.jpg mean something different to some. To me, when I say that, I mean that an album wasn’t really that impressive to me the first couple times through, but after some repeated listens, I’ve changed my opinion. This is important for bloggers, because it’s rare that we withhold judgement and just let an album sink in.

I’m happy that I let the new album from Palomar sink in, because after some reapeated listens to the record, it’s not a stretch for me to say that this is their finest album to date. It’s the fourth album from the Brooklyn based band and the maturation is evident throughout. While it remains true to the band’s DNA of power pop gems, it has a dark and almost haunting edge to it that leaves me wanting more.

Enjoy these two songs from Palomar’s new album, All Things, Forests.

Palomar - Our Haunt

Palomar - You’re Keeping Us Up

    This really great stuff. I’m enjoying it from first listen, so I guess things can only get better for me from now on :-D
