Coming soon: Soul

Review: Over a decade since their beginnings in Bloomington, Indiana, Durand Jones & The Indications return with a warm and sensual record that both reflects and refines their soulful trajectory. It blossoms slowly, opening with the mid-tempo glide of 'Superstition' and deepening into the creamy falsetto of 'When I'm Back'. 'The Way That I Do' draws on lowrider aesthetics with ease while 'Love Everlasting' and 'Meditation' showcase their expanding vocal palette and flair for smooth arrangement. 'Sadie' leans into southern balladry with the band's signature tenderness and closer 'Comin' Around' folds gospel, soul and heartbreak into one final shimmer. Still rooted in vintage tones but more patient and lush, this feels like a band fully in bloom.
