Real Estate - Daniel (2024) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

Since their 2009 self-titled debut album, Real Estate have distinguished themselves as modern-day jangle-pop torchbearers. The New Jersey group retains that crown on the superlative Daniel, which overflows with crisp, economical pop-rock that often calls to mind the salad days of Fountains of Wayne. Chalk up this sound partly due to their influences—R.E.M.'s lush, moody Automatic for the People and the softer side of '90s rock—and the band's recording process. The members of Real Estate moved in together in Nashville and recorded Daniel in just nine days at the famed RCA Studio A with producer-songwriter Daniel Tashian (Kacey Musgraves' Golden Hour). Understandably, there's a hint of dusky Americana melancholy on the pedal steel-tinted "Haunted World" and the Scottish-pop-influenced "Flowers." However, Martin Courtney's keening vocals are particularly yearning on Daniel, lending buoyancy to the wiry "Say No More" and urgent "Airdrop," and underscoring the restlessness and uncertainty coursing through the lyrics. Jangle-pop has never sounded so fresh—and so irresistible.
