Though the atmosphere surrounding elbow's 'Giants of All Sizes' is much heavier than on any of the band’s other records this decade, Guy Garvey still finds some hope through it all. Check out ed_and_thestone's review -
—they’re here to make their point as forcefully as possible, even if it means they’re a little more brash throughout.
Weighty synths drive “Empires,” propelling Garvey’s voice to new heights as backup vocals compete for space. Though the band described the song as a contemplation on how commonplace death is on a societal level , it’s easy to project that to the U.K. as a whole.
So much of the album is dogged by a heavy weight that all of us are constantly grappling with in such a pessimistic age. But the record ends with the line “He was weightless in my arms,” showing that there is still hope yet, and all it takes is falling back in family, friends and perhaps, a new generation. It’s easy to be negative in 2019—and Elbow certainly are throughout—but it doesn’t mean that good things can’t come out of this cursed age.
