Blue Rev [Polyvinyl/Transgressive, 2022]
Something bothered me about the sound of this much-admired album by Canadian power poppers I was on early only not with album three, which made many top 10s. So I got to it late by buying a CD whose hi-fi I thought might help separate the tunes proper from the shoegaze fuzz that dimmed them when I Spotified it--and still does, but less hence not decisively. Instead what converted me was yet more replays plus closer attention to the lyrics. First I noticed how explicitly collegiate they were, situating Molly Rankin both culturally, in her devotion to aesthetic usages less staid than "the lettered life" she once aspired to, and generationally, as the postgrads who populate her songs negotiate love lives they're seldom ready for. "Is she a perfect 10? Have you found Christ again?" she asks one soon-to-be ex. "You were my Tom Verlaine," another is reminded as she enjoys the feel of the breeze on her back. And the noisy double-time three-minute kissoff "Pomeranian Spinster" levels so many insults at one or more whoevers you can hardly believe it leaves room for an extra touch of anticlericalism: "Presbyterisn ministers/Travel in packs and never split/They deviate in the tiniest concepts." Rock and roll! A

Their discography, and their legacy, is forever tainted by Blue Mehv. What a tragic downfall.

I think it elevated it, shit just goes harder. I do understand it though if you were longing for the softer sounds of em.
>>
>>127837294
No, it isn't about harder or softer. It's about good, memorable songwriting.
>>
>>127837294
there's one zoomer who samefags about "blue mehv" every alvvays thread, ignore him
>>
>>127839157
Blue Rev has their best and most memorable songwriting though.
>>
>>127839865
Not a zoomer, actually.

>>127839985
Each song from their previous albums has a distinct identity and memorable parts. None of them do on their dud.
