Our Take

Built to Spill's latest album, "When The Wind Forgets Your Name," is a rollercoaster of emotions, riffs, and lyrical wit that will leave you feeling like you've just stumbled out of a twisted indie rock funhouse.

From the moment the first track kicks in, you know you're in for a wild ride. The guitar work is as intricate as a spider's web, intertwining with Doug Martsch's unmistakable vocals in a way that is both comforting and exhilarating.

The album's themes of introspection and longing are encapsulated in songs like "C.R.E.B." and "Hindsight," where Martsch's poignant lyrics cut deep like a dagger to the heart. But just when you think you've got the album figured out, tracks like "Moments" and "Another Foreign Place" throw you for a loop, with their unexpected twists and turns that keep you on the edge of your seat.

But what truly sets this album apart is Built to Spill's ability to seamlessly blend indie charm with classic rock sensibilities, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and refreshingly new. So, if you're in the mood for an album that will make you laugh, cry, and maybe even dance a little, "When The Wind Forgets Your Name" is definitely worth a listen.
