Shows Are Standing Room OnlyOne of the most remarkable aspects of Distant PopulationsQuicksands first album since 2017s Interiorsis how timely and prescient the themes running throughout its songs sound at this very moment. Thoughtful, driving, and powerful, like the long-lived band itself, the 11 tracks comprising Distant Populations have an emotional resonance that is only amplified by the events of the past stressed-out, locked-down year.If there is a recurring theme running throughout the new album, it might be this: Everyone is on the one hand so connected with each other, says Schreifels, and on the other hand is so far apart, and so freaked out about everything.That seeming contradiction may lie at the heart of what Distant Populations is all about. The title comes from a lyric from anarcho-crust punk band Nauseas Fallout (Of Our Being) about destitute populations; because of the singers thick accent, Schreifels misheard it as distant populations and instantly connected with that concept. So were checking out each others social media and we know what everybodys doing, he says, pointing out a sad irony.But when were sitting in the same room together, were looking at our phones. That peculiar dualityour simultaneous existence in individual relationships and as part of mass societyis examined with power and surprising emotional impact throughout all of the tracks here. Cutting and sharp lyrical passages pop out on tracks such as the throbbing Colossus: A new life/ Were never meant to feel completed/As long as were here/It doesnt matter what for And alienationfrom whom or what often going unsaidand loneliness are touched on regularly, whether subtly (Sometimes its better just to keep on traveling from Phase 90) or stated plainly (Living just around the corner/Share the same existence/Doesnt make a difference/Deconstructed, isolated from the closing track Rodan). Combine those sentiments with the most sweeping, powerful music the band has ever created, and youve got a truly unforgettable, extremely timely listening experience.
