LUX

the take

What about this project doesn’t set it apart? Impossibly deliberate and chaotic at the same time, a musical exploration of theology, linguistics, and purpose, LUX is one of the most incomparable albums I have ever heard. The songs are enchanting on a first listen, but the more you examine the lyrics, the themes, and the orchestrations, brings a new perspective to every listen. I love maximalist, unpredictable, and cerebral pop, and they intersect here in a way I never could have imagined. fave tracks: la yugular, de madrugá, berghain, porcelana, reliquia least fave: memória
