The album finds the band shifting away from the doom and gloom of its blackgaze beginnings and taking on a more conventional, wholly shoegaze sound.

Usually peppered with sprightly synths and rapturous breakdowns, Hippo Campus’ music now enters a new era full of punchy songs with a slight edge.

The album is an amalgamation of sounds and emotions from all over the musical indieverse — it’s a sampling platter, the ultimate indie tasting palette.

Electro Melodier is a glimmer of hope in a seemingly unending sea of darkness and despair.

The single sounds like quintessential Maiden but is dampened due to the amalgamation of conflicting genres failing to work together.

The album finds its strongest features in its simplicity: catchy beats, pointed lyrics and a narrative that, as expected, hits home.

The band’s first release since 2012’s Speak in Code, is an ode to quintessential punk and all the fast-paced, raw anger the genre is known for with elements of humor that make the EP unique to the Eve 6 brand.

From strawberry pies to hiding bodies, Montana is able to weave not just a sonic experience for listeners, but an emotional journey that grows with every listen.

Overall, Call Me If You Get Lost is an excellent album that rivals not only Tyler, the Creator’s previous releases but a majority of new and old albums that have built the cornerstone of hip-hop and rap.

The 50-minute show was an emotional rollercoaster, packed to the brim with the singer’s raw and real personality as well as blunt lyrics of tender and fiery tellings of not only queer but universal love.
