Beabadoobee - Pylon [Sea Foam LP w/ Poster]

Written on the road whilst supporting the acclaimed and chart topping This Is How Tomorrow Moves and crafted with collaborators including Hayley Williams, Turnstile’s Brendan Yates, Chino Moreno of Deftones and Pinegrove’s Evan Stephens Hall, Pylon touches on classic grunge, midwest emo and ‘90s radio rock, zeroing in on a sound that is both more intense and more direct than any of her previous records.

The stark and striking fourth album by beabadoobee is named for the electricity towers that dot every major artery in the world—the strong, spindly structures that reminded Beatrice Laus of her connection to friends and family at home while she was staring down extreme disconnection and isolation on tour over the past few years. 
 
The title can also be read as an allusion to Laus’ spiky, forceful new sound—the waves of distortion that crash and shatter across this record’s 14 songs mirroring the intense crackle you hear when walking under power lines. The pylon is also a fitting symbol for an album that reckons with the repetitive anxieties of your mid-twenties: What if I’m always going to be this way? What if life is just pylon after pylon on the road?
