Maps & Atlases - Lightlessness Is Nothing New (2018) [FLAC] Genre: Rock Style: Indie Source: WEB Codec: FLAC Bit rate: ~ 900 kbps Bit depth: 16 Sample rate: 44.1 kHz 01 The Fear 02 Fall Apart 03 Ringing Bell 04 Violet Threaded 05 Fog and the Fall 06 Learn How to Swim 07 Superbowl Sunday 08 War Dreams 09 4/25 10 Wrong King of Magic Midwestern indie outfit Maps & Atlases returned after a six-year hiatus with their surprisingly pop-leaning third full-length, Lightlessness Is Nothing New. Following the departure of founding guitarist Erin Elders, the remaining trio of Shiraz Dada, David Davison, and Christopher Hainey forged ahead with the spirit of a new band, taking big steps beyond the persistent math rock designation into fresh territory that incorporated more rhythm and upbeat spirit. Produced by Scott Solter (Mike Patton, Okkervil River), Lightlessness can be split into two sonic halves. The first part is light and enjoyable, a natural progression of Beware and Be Grateful's danceable "Fever." "Fall Apart" and "Ringing Bell" are catchy enough to resemble pop duo Miike Snow, while the jangly "Fog and the Fall" features an angular Afro-beat energy similar to Vampire Weekend. The second half of Lightlessness veers closer to the band's earlier sound, patiently building and meandering on explorations like "Learn How to Swim" and "Wrong Kind of Magic." "War Dreams" is a highlight that synthesizes the spirits of both halves, allowing Maps & Atlases the space to get weird without sacrificing their newfound hook-friendly approach. Refreshed and reinvigorated, Maps & Atlases take risks that result in a major payoff on Lightlessness Is Nothing New, remaining faithful to their past while eyeing their future
