FEATURE ALBUM

Chvrches – Every Open Eye
[Liberator]

Forever challenging what it is to make accessible pop, Every Open Eye falls somewhere between the lush maturity of MØ and the urgency of Pet Shop Boys. As the follow-up to the trio's seamless debut record The Bones of What You Believe, singer Lauren Mayberry draws again on her law degree and Masters in journalism – the oft-used annotation tied to her – to wax lyrical about personal relationships, determination and vindication.

With glorious builds on tracks like Clearest Blue and Empty Threat and the sleekness of the album's title track, Every Open Eye sees Chvrches continue their ascent, sweeping away alongside your own disquiet.
