Marnie Stern's latest offering, "The Comeback Kid," is a whirlwind of sonic experimentation and infectious energy. Stern, known for her technical guitar skills and off-kilter song structures, is back with a vengeance on this record.
From the opening track, "Year of the Glad," it's clear that Stern hasn't lost her touch. The frenetic guitar riffs and dynamic drumming create a sense of urgency that carries through the entire album.
Tracks like "Nothing is Easy" and "East Side Glory" showcase Stern's ability to blend pop sensibilities with avant-garde tendencies, creating a sound that is uniquely her own. Her distinctive vocals float effortlessly over the complex instrumentation, drawing the listener in with their captivating melodies.
But it's on songs like "Proof of Life" and "Hell Yes" where Stern truly shines. The raw emotion and vulnerability in her lyrics are palpable, creating a depth and honesty that is rare in today's music landscape.
Overall, "The Comeback Kid" is a triumphant return for Marnie Stern. With its infectious energy and technical prowess, this album is sure to please both longtime fans and newcomers alike. Stern proves once again that she is a force to be reckoned with in the world of indie rock. Verdict: 8.5/10.
