Album Notes & Community Reviews
Released alongside an actual physical art book containing lyrics and visual poetry, the legendary alternative pop duo delivers their twenty-third studio album. 'BOOK' perfectly captures the Johns' signature, highly eclectic blend of power pop, drum machines, and bizarrely humorous, subtly paranoid songwriting. It serves as an impressive, consistently catchy addition to one of the most uniquely enduring catalogs in indie rock history.
