In The Morse Code Of Brake Lights (LP)
The New Pornographers
Amoeba Review
07/28/2020
The New Pornographers return with the perfectly polished indie pop gem In The Morse Code Of Brake Lights. On this newest album, the band find themselves grappling with the dilemma of seeking and enjoying happiness in a tumultuous era. The perfect example is lead single, “Falling Down the Stairs of Your Smile,” — there’s a queasiness beneath the soaring harmonies, a curious combination of joy, confusion, and questioning. Yes, The New Pornographers are contemplating some tough questions on this album but those exquisite melodies fans expect are, of course, there in spades. Guaranteed to please longtime fans of the band…and to turn some new heads, too.
