Mr Twin Sister returns with Al Mundo Azul, the New York group’s fourth full length album and first major offering since 2018’s Salt. From the opening measures of the clangorous, scene-setting “Fantasy,” the record takes off on a tear, swapping the group’s restrained cool for something wide awake and grinning. “Expressions” polishes the spaced-out disco of 2018’s “Echo Arms” into bright, lustrous pop, while “Diary” and “Polvo” flirt with acid-burnt piano house and thumping, disoriented Latin pop. The group has dabbled in bilingual songwriting before, but Spanish-language music becomes integral for the first time on Al Mundo Azul. As the group's singer Andrea Estella explains, “​​lyrics and storytelling felt new again [in Spanish].” Mr Twin Sister pulls off an impressive coup across these 11 tracks, using vibrant, surreal pop to unpack heady ideas and emotions. On the expanded Japanese edition, listeners are treated to a sampling of outtakes, dubs, demos, and alternate versions: it's an engaging postscript that further enriches an already diverse offering.
