Line & Circle - Vicious Folly
Review by Hitesh Joshi
Vicious Folly, the latest album by Line & Circle, is a stunning display of the band's musical prowess. The album features a mix of indie rock, pop, and dreamy shoegaze, with each track showcasing the band's musical versatility.
The album opens with the title track, "Vicious Folly," which sets the tone for the rest of the album with its infectious guitar riffs and catchy hooks. "Man Uncouth" follows, with its driving beat and soaring vocals, making it one of the standout tracks on the album.
Other notable tracks include "Fear of Life," a slow-burning ballad that builds to a powerful crescendo, and "Like a Statue," a dreamy and introspective track that showcases the band's ability to create a mood with their music.

About Line & Circle
Line & Circle combines early 4AD dream pop with chiming I.R.S. Records-era guitar rock to create melodically rich and rhythmically urgent pop music. The group's sound has been equated to "Michael Stipe jamming with Johnny Marr" (Rolling Stone) and praised as "jangly, dreamy guitar-pop of the highest caliber" (Stereogum) and "post-modern and majestic" (KEXP).
Line & Circle arrived on the national scene in 2012 after releasing its debut 7 single Roman Ruins / Carelessness on White Iris Records, which received wide acclaim and landed on a number of critics Best Song of The Year polls on both sides of the Atlantic. The bands 2015 debut full length Split Figure appeared on The A.V. Clubs ballots for best albums and best singles ( Like A Statue ) of the year.
In fall 2018, Line & Circle toured the west coast with Arthur Buck, the new supergroup featuring R.E.M. guitarist Peter Buck and singer/songwriter Joseph Arthur. The bands newest single Full Disclosure was released September 7th. Sharon Van Etten named it one of her favorite songs of 2018, and Uproxxs Stephen Hyden noted the bands oft-breathtaking melodies are absolutely timeless.
