Unknown Mortal Orchestra Unleashes Their Third Studio Album 'Multi-Love' (NPR First Look Stream)
It's been roughly three years since New Zealand's psychedelically-tinged trio Unknown Mortal Orchestra graced the world with their potent blend of oddly perfect pop schematics and experimental r&b styles, but their third studio album Multi-Love is here and it's pretty damn brilliant. The follow-up to their critically adored II LP has been well on its way for months now, with the slightly disco-touched and funky-to-the-bone single "Can't Keep Checking My Phone" and the break-heavy title-track both warming us up for the storm. But now you can fall all the way into this vortex of shapeshifting musical loveliness, ranging from airy Beatles-esque melodies to more folksy funk to gritty, distorted garage tempering. And with albums like this, we could use a thousand words to try and capture the undefinable and infectious charms, and still come up short. Si this one's one you, fam.
