Everybody Is Going to Heaven

Everybody Is Going to Heaven
- Shrink-wrapped
Almost two years to the date of the release of their breakthrough album, Citizen return with their highly anticipated follow-up full-length, Everybody is Going to Heaven. Haunting these ten songs is a foreboding, dark atmosphere masterfully crafted by producer Will Yip, and an immediate, intense energy is palpable from even the first grimy seconds of the opener, â€œCement.â€ As with every one of Citizenâ€™s releases, Mat Kerekesâ€™ signature vocal delivery here is a trademark feature, demonstrating the emotional tension that boils over on this release. As cathartic as ever, he duels between a soft croon and a haunting scream, confronting his demons on tracks like â€œMy Favorite Colorâ€ echoing the tormented refrain, â€œmy heart still beats for nothingâ€. And while most of the record is an intense and noisy onslaught, songs like â€œHeavisideâ€ and â€œYellow Loveâ€ act as armistices, each aching in reverb-drenched consonance. Everybody is Going to Heaven is a defining record for Citizen: once regarded as newcomers with undeniable potential, the band shows here that they have matured both abruptly and uniquely, with no end to their upward trajectory in sight.
