While Girlpool’s songs have always been populated by infectious harmonies and quotable lyrics, their music itself has never been more communicative than on their sophomore album, Powerplant. Cleo Tucker plays guitar with an inventive intensity, stringing together melodies that wander off into unexpected places and echo back against Harmony Tividad’s bobbing basslines. Powerplant plays like an intricate conversation between two artists with an uncanny ability to finish each other’s thoughts.
