Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix
Phoenix
Recently, the Facebook algorithm blessed my timeline with this video, and this album immediately went on my list of albums to hear. That guitar tone is incredible! My sister used to play “Lisztomania” in the car as she drove us to school many years ago, and I hadn’t listened to a song from that album since then.
This album is a banger. I’ve been listening to it nonstop for the last couple of weeks (mostly because I haven’t had the chance to add anything else new), and it hasn’t gotten old yet. I love the fragmented lyrics and how the sections of each song are so delineated.
Favorite tracks: “Lasso,” “Armistice,” “Lisztomania,” and “1901”
