The Glass Hour

Andy Suzuki & The Method’s The Glass Hour is half-reminiscent of the band’s previous folk-pop, but quickly shifts to stranger things, into a near-future pop that sounds like it's from the year 2019. The rhythmic intricacies still reflect the hand-percussionist half of their writing team, only with Juny Mag scaling everything up to stadium-sized dimensions. 

Its sensibilities hover somewhere between Jack Garratt and Michael Jackson, and nowhere is this clearer than on “I Can't Live,” “Overtime,” and unmistakably on “I Need You More,” which could easily double as a movie soundtrack to an impromptu street dancing scene. On “Shelter” we coast through stretches of soul and blues that would be the envy of Amos Lee, with cloudbursts of gospel choir breaking through.
