2013
The album sounds emotionally exhausted in a deeply convincing way. Matt Berninger sings about anxiety, domestic tension, and emotional disconnection with enough dry humor to keep the sadness from becoming static. The arrangements remain elegant and carefully layered, but there’s more vulnerability showing through the cracks than on earlier records. Songs like “Pink Rabbits” and “Graceless” understand adulthood as a state of ongoing psychological negotiation.

Soundtrack of My Life, Since 2003
Don’t make me read your mind
You should know me better than that.As soon as I heard the first song, I Should Live in Salt, I was hooked. Self-deprecating lyrics, self-recrimination, and a hypnotic slow rhythm. I never get tired of listening to this album. I graded papers to it, Marie Kondo-d my house to it, and worked on torturous manuscripts while listening to this album on repeat. Still do.
