LP3 (LP)
Hippo Campus
Amoeba Review
Hippo Campus has the rare ability to craft songs about life’s most challenging aspects and weave them into easy-to-love, pure-and-simple enjoyable melodies. Their latest, LP3, is filled with lushly-constructed indie pop gems that should boost any mood. Now, you’d be forgiven for not immediately realizing that the band is diving into some real deep waters here, taking on themes of despair, loss, and rediscovery. The vibe is absolutely gorgeous: occasionally breezy, grooved out, and dreamy. But there’s real meaning here and perhaps that’s what makes LP3 such the incredible album it is. Transcendent, moving, and best of all, totally danceable.
