I?ll really never forget when I first heard The Garden, with their 2018 album ?Mirror Might Steal Your Charm? and at the time it was one of the most explosive and experimental punk albums I had ever really heard. I remember thinking how wild it is to hear art punk and post-punk sound like that. Well, years later and to be honest there still is not a band out there who is doing what the duo is doing. Their new album is just as explosive and intricate as their previous, but they keep the tracks short and sweet making for an easy listen when you need it. Not only that but the way the band continues to incorporate electronic elements like synth-punk and drum and bass are beyond incredible. My only gripe is that the last two tracks are nowhere near as enjoyable as the rest of the album making for a weak-ish closer. Otherwise, a really incredible listen.
