Solid states

Description

Le Rock 'n' roll has rarely been as intelligent, moving, and exciting as in the hands of The Posies. Throughout its tumultuous career, spanning four decades, the Seattle-based band, led by the talented Jon Auer and Ken Stringfellow, has constantly reinvented itself and created one of the most captivating repertoires of modern pop. Solid States, the band's eighth album, is no exception. While the legendary melodic skill, vocal harmonies, and the Posies' ability to write deeply intelligent lyrics are present here, the American band continues to explore new horizons. For the first time, keyboards are highlighted, with guitars primarily used as sound effects, which the mixing by Tony Hoffer (M83, Air, Beck) perfectly showcases. Since the beginning of its career, The Posies has consistently taken risks and added even more richness to its message. With Solid States, the American band clearly reaches its peak.
