The fourth full-length from Wild Pink, ILYSM unfolds with all the fractured beauty of a dreamscape. Over the course of 12 chameleonic tracks, the New York-bred rock band build another world inhabited by ghosts and angels and aliens, inciting a strange and lovely daze as the backdrop shifts from the mundane (subdivisions, highways, hotel parking lots) to the extraordinary (deserts, battlefields, the moon). But within its vast imagination lies a potent truth-telling on the part of singer / guitarist John Ross, whose lyrics closely examine his recent struggle with cancer. The follow-up to 2021s A Billion Little Lights a critically acclaimed effort praised by the likes of Pitchfork, NPR, Vulture, and Stereogum, who named it one of the prettiest rock records of the past decadeILYSM emerges as a truly revelatory body of work, transforming the most painful reflection into moments of transcendence.
