Soft-spoken indie-pop accumulation could use some caffeine BY Sophie Weiner | October 21, 2014
British indie-pop revivalists Allo Darlin' are the bandage for you if you like cautiously articulate vocals, clinking guitars and tempos that will get you angry up abundant to alcohol tea with your cat. Their third anthology continues in this balmy fashion, and admitting consistently pleasant, it's generally unmemorable. The band, which on accomplished albums has articulate odes to Polaroid cameras and Nineties hits, seems bedeviled with nostalgia. The highlight is "History Lessons," about active in the present: "What came afore doesn't accept to accept been the best," sings frontwoman Elizabeth Morris. It wouldn't aching the accumulation to yield its own advice.
