User Album Review
Given its extensive breadth of stylistic differentiation and enormous crop of influences, Titanic Rising’s most obvious skill lies in just how easily it all fits together. Stellar songwriting has long been the staple of every great, lasting pop song, yet the strength to which tracks are so immaculately arranged beckons comparisons with any of the great pop masterpieces, from the seamless baroque modernity of Kate Bush’s Hounds of Love to the layered collages of the Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds.
It isn’t often that so many different facets of a modern pop record manage to command your fixation without bringing anything actually new to the genre. Yet, Titanic Rising, the latest effort from Weyes Blood (Natalie Mering), proves that peerless pop music doesn’t have to be entirely original. Pulling together all the timeless tropes that make resonant, enduring and powerful piano- and synth-led pop (but not for a second sounding dated or too indebted to nostalgia), Mering forges her own originality through the assemblance of impeccable, peerless pop tunes.
Mering builds songs like few others can, balancing a succinct precision in her arrangements and mixing without ever seeming too calculated or inorganic. Titanic Rising is easily her best record thus far, and one of the finest pop records in recent years. An ambitious, varied and ardently rewarding listen, Titanic Rising is pop music for ages and worlds far beyond our own, and an emphatic show of prowess from one who is sure to be one of indie’s new radiant lights.
