'Something to Ruin' confronts the debris of our collective failures and asks whether we might be better off letting go and starting over. This album still has plenty of the infectious and joyful melodies the band is known for, but this time the stakes are higher. It raises questions about facing our society's collective wreckage both environmentally and culturally. The most curious part about this band is their ability to address themes of isolation, obscurity, and rejection of the well-paved path while still expressing an infectious hope so contagious that even the most cynical listener can be brought into the fold. It's the reason why President Obama felt compelled to add their song to his personal reelection playlist, a high school choir in Burkina Faso adopted their songs, and NPR claims their music "could actually change your life."
