Our Take

The latest offering from the enigmatic Minus 5, "Killingsworth", is a mind-bending journey through the kaleidoscopic world of indie rock. Frontman Scott McCaughey's knack for crafting infectious melodies is on full display here, as the album weaves its way through a dizzying array of musical styles and influences.

From the jangly power-pop of opening track "Adios Halfwit" to the haunting balladry of "The Forgotten But Not Gone", "Killingsworth" is a sonic rollercoaster that will keep even the most seasoned music aficionados on their toes. McCaughey's songwriting is nothing short of genius, blending clever wordplay with heartfelt emotion in a way that is uniquely his own.

The album's production is top-notch, with lush layers of instrumentation adding depth and richness to each track. The band's chemistry is palpable, with each member bringing their own unique flair to the table. It's clear that a lot of care and attention went into crafting each song, and the result is a cohesive and captivating listening experience.

"Killingsworth" is a testament to the enduring power of indie rock, and a shining example of what happens when a band is firing on all cylinders. It's a wild ride from start to finish, and one that is sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone who dares to take it for a spin. Don't miss out on this gem of an album.
