The Future

Description

The Colorado bands latest album is full of well-turned retro moves and reaches for a deeper meaning

That mix of Sixties groove workouts and Seventies singer-songwriter truth-seeking pays off on their third album, The Future. The title track kicks off sounding like the Bob Dylan of Desire if hed recorded that album at Muscle Shoals. Good-natured vamps like Something Aint Right and Survivor strive to find rays of hope in our garbage times, musically hulking out with swelling horns and deliberate, nuanced muscle, as if the Night Sweats are a gang of bar buddies patting Nathaniel on the back as he decides to man up and take on reality. Gotta sing a lot of soul to know how to feel it, he offers on Something Aint Right, an ode to the cathartic power of making music.
