Reviews and Comments
Hamilton’s, Canada, five-piece returns this fall with their sophomore album, Sounds Like a Place. This eleven-song record has been a long time coming, with the initial recording at Toronto’s Union Sound Company back in the summer of 2022. Their new album will be released on November 8.
Sounds Like a Place bears a mix of the industrial, electric hum of Capitol’s hometown of Hamilton and the shoegazey dream-pop that they’ve been leaning into since their debut single, 2017’s “English Girls”. This time heavily inspired by alternative indie artists of the 90s/00s and still tinged with a dash of 80s New Wave, the album weaves in and out of genre and decade. Though it retains the signature music-out-of-time abstraction that has pervaded their previous work, it is also defined with a new level of clarity. Just as every song is written as a memento of a moment or a feeling, Capitol hopes each new listen will become tethered to a time and, of course, to a place.
