for contrast., check out the new baroness. it’s obviously a different beast than geneva but it too skips around stylistically yet always maintains a sort of center. there’s heavy stuff, almost poppy stuff, finger picking, etc but they never stray from who they are or what they do. i’ve listened to geneva a few times since writing this and i’m always initially fooled into thinking i was wrong because it starts so strong. then i find myself drifting from it towards the middle and remember that that’s the problem. baroness’s blue album may sound completely different from moment to moment but it’s all compelling and ends pretty much where it began. that’s my mini review.
