LIFE ON EARTH [Clear Vinyl] (LP)
Hurray For The Riff Raff
Amoeba Review
It has been five years since we last heard from Hurray For the Riff Raff. Their latest, LIFE ON EARTH, is a welcome and very timely return. Singer Alynda Segarra refers to the band’s sonic evolution on the album as “nature punk,” which is a pretty apt description for the album’s tight-wire act as the mood balances between hope and transcendence, despair and destruction. Segarra’s voice is honey sweet as the melodies genre-bend elements of alt-rock, indie, folk, and Latin music, her lyrics bold and unapologetic as she explores social and ecological crises. LIFE ON EARTH is a stirring, emotionally-charged, and beautiful album that feels like a roadmap forward for those who believe a better world is possible.
