J Mascis welcomes you to a dark, mellow, and easy-going world on ‘Elastic Days’

 ‘Elastic Days’ is a moody, soft, and introspective album. The  instrumentation helps put the listener into the world that the lyrics  paint. The guitar solos are crisp and effective in bringing out the  emotion of the lyrics. The contributors to the record add enough extra  layers to certain songs to help expand the album’s sound. Near the end  of the album, the music tires out and kept me wanting something  different in sound.

‘Origins’ should have gone back to where it came from

 'Origins' sounds like a car crash involving quite a lot of albums.  Unfortunately, none of those albums happen to be good ones. Whether it  is the flaccid, lifeless electro-pop and EDM, the overblown radio rock  destined to plague arenas across the world, or the departures from those  two sounds that should’ve been left on the cutting room floor, all the  directions that Imagine Dragons attempt to go in lead to dead ends.  Based on the consistently decreasing quality of their records, seeing  how it could possibly get worse is the one thing worth anticipating for  their future material.
