Wolf Parade
\nThin Mind
\n<\/i>(Royal Mountain Records)
\n4\/5\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cExplosive\u201d is the only way to describe Montreal\/BC-based indie rock band Wolf Parade\u2019s fifth studio album, Thin Mind<\/i>.<\/p>\n

The first track, \u201cUnder Glass,\u201d screams for attention in its first 10 seconds and establishes the album\u2019s sweeping pace. Rolling waves of instrumental energy crash into lyrical themes of environmental blasphemy in a world filled with indifferent, technology-obsessed zombies. Layered synth riffs weave intricately between the precise indie-disco drum performance and gritty rhythmic guitar lines of the song, creating a modern avant-garde atmosphere that still manages to tip its hat to the rich history of the band\u2019s influences.<\/p>\n

On Thin Mind<\/i>, Wolf Parade embrace the line between lively anthemic soundscapes and lyrical melancholia, sonically capturing the complexities of modern existence.<\/p>\n

My suggestion for listening to this record: take a long look up at the stars on a clear night and reach for the light\u2014the natural kind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
