Third Eye Blind

For their sixth studio album, Third Eye Blind branched out by pulling in Billy Corgan as musical advisor and securing guest turns from electronic/synth artists like Sleigh Bells' Alison Krauss and Ryan Olson of Marijuana Deathsquads and Poliça. The title track is uplifting, polished-but-fuzzy pop-rock that really benefits from the Sleigh Bells stomp and angelic Krauss vocals. “Walk Like Kings” is a more subdued pop song with tongue-in-cheek slang delivered in Stephen Jenkin's familiar lispy vocals. The album follows up their 2018 EP, Thanks For Everything, with a suitable bang.
