Description
While by no means a self-help album - Namesake's new release Redeeming Features benefits from this shift in perspective - The band's bouncy noise rock has become a place for Phillips to explore his gains.
'The Taste' revisits the numbing nature of the Midwest drinking scene, including his memories of accidentally getting drunk on his grandfather's lemonade. Disassociation after abuse - and the power of speaking out - drives British punk-leaning closer, 'Out Loud.' But it's strident album opener 'I'm Sick,' that doubles as the release's mission statement. Redeeming Features is ultimately a sprint through the healing process. But perhaps more importantly, it's a fun listen, evoking both the dark rooms of independent music venues, and nights spent driving around hometowns, volume up and windows down. Phillips is proud of how far he's come and what his band has created. And with a little luck, he'll be able to infuse other people's journeys with a sense of joy.
Pressed on Blue and Purple Swirl color vinyl.
