Bent Knee - Twenty Pills Without Water (2024)
Twenty Pills Without Water marks a new era for Bent Knee, who return as a quartet after losing two founding members. The album blends art rock, indie, and progressive elements into a cohesive and emotionally resonant experience. With Courtney Swain's haunting vocals at the forefront and Chris Baum's enhanced violin presence, the band delivers a more grounded and mature sound. The album explores themes of anxiety, nostalgia, and change, wrapped in a mix of lush strings, intricate rhythms, and introspective lyrics. Fans of their earlier work will appreciate the shift towards a more melodic and less chaotic approach, making this album a standout in their discography(The PROG Mind,Progarchives,DMME).
