This 5th full-length album is a sun and drug-dappled beauty, infused with a thick sonic kaleidoscope of tones. More immediate and to the point than previous releases, it's a shorter record than they've made to date and is a nice summary of their thought processes: power and beauty hold the cards ultimately. One doesn't work without the other here. The first song Killing Queens represents this heavy-lidded flowery power. The melodies here feel familiar somehow but without plagiarism or air quotes completely.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"The Life and Times","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41584356589639,"sku":"45109805","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/3604983.jpg?v=1777029782","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/life-times-skull-map","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
