Sound Kapital, in its deepest essence, is the perfect stroke of mature artistry.
Handsome Furs no longer feel like a stripped-down antidote to Wolf Parade.
It’s a compelling album that’s almost complete.
Boeckner and Perry succeed in their experiment, wringing the same cathartic material out of their synth-driven approach as they did in their previous album-long anthems.
Sound Kapitol is a successful, if slightly creatively stifling refinement of a fruitful and unique musical partnership.
The resulting picture of Sound Kapital as a whole is one of complacency, making the album easy enough to like, but difficult to love.
