What a time to be alive - Alvvays return with an album that keeps up their hot streak and we are here for it. Classic indie pop dynamics meet sweetly dark lyrical turns for an album that improves listen on listen. Welcome back Alvvays, we've missed you!

They never intended to take five years to finish their third album, the nervy joyride that is the compulsively lovable Blue Rev. At least the five-year wait was worthwhile: Blue Rev doesn’t simply reassert what’s always been great about Alvvays but instead reimagines it. They have, in part and sum, never been better. There are 14 songs on Blue Rev, making it not only the longest Alvvays album but also the most harmonically rich and lyrically provocative.
