  • Description

    Communions are a four-piece from Copenhagen made up of brothers Martin and Mads Rehof, Jacob van Deurs Formann, and Frederik Lind Köppen. Blue makes the most of everywhere the band have been. And through all of this the stakes have changed, but the sensitivity and craft with which the band takes risks has bloomed. Discarding some of the moodiness found in their previous recordings, Blue tells us what was always natural to Communions. It's about love, and taking chances, it's about trying something, and it still doesn't matter if there's apprehension—it's better when you're too busy to notice. The youthful confusions and exaggerated sentiments are there, though this time it's captured with a newfound maturity. It's a change in perspective presented in pop. 'Come On, I'm Waiting' rallies us with a rhythm that punches and a lyric that doesn't start with introductions, peaking into an anthemic call. The following track, 'Today,' is peppered with a wistfully mournful guitar that propels the song along, washing over Rehof's wry cry of intent. The band stalks new territory with a distinctive edge on 'Midnight Child.' Their effortless way with melody is wound tight into what feels like an aching glance across a dance floor. On 'Don't Hold Anything Back,' we soar on a blissed-out, hyper-real summer day. It cuts through the album like the statement the band were always dying to make.
