...could blame me, though, for succumbing to the din of tango just barely detectable through the backseat of our car? I was hungry for authenticity, craving connection. Our family had been duped the previous night by the advice of a friend who had recently visited Argentina. We had ended up at a tango show reminiscent of amateur night on “Dancing with the Stars,” replete with lip-syncing, garish dresses, and food as bland as the semblance of culture the venue served...

This shift in musical direction is particularly surprising given the band’s previous taste for less instantly gratifying melodies and seriously-minded lyrics. The lyrics on “Odd Blood” continue to be somewhat off-putting, creating an interesting juxtaposition with the band’s new melodic style. This especially stands out on the infectious single “O.N.E.” when lyrics like, “No, you don’t move me anymore / And I’m glad that you don’t / ‘Cause...
