Richly textured indie, shoegaze and pop by Nashville’s 25-year-old Sophie Allison, here with her third album that contains the dark, world weary, but also tuneful and uplifting material, given extra depth by producer Daniel Lopatin aka Oneohtrix Point Never. The musical territory advances from the fine album 2020’s fine album Color Theory, and although there are the slow, lazy strumming and soft vocal styles that hit the comfortable spot such as opener and single Bones, Lopatin particularly brings a new sound with the juddery, gusty, ghostly Unholy Affliction, the rich, dark, thrumming bass and beats on Darkness Forever, and lighter, breezy Newdemo. Other standouts include Following Eyes and Fire In The Driveway. A cut above other shoegaze or indie singer-songwriter releases, with smart songwriting. Out on Loma Vista.
