DOORS 7 / MUSIC 8

The follow-up to 2021’s rustic, folk-tingedGreen to Gold,Blight asks many questions without offering easy answers. Over the course of nine new songs, the Antlers’ founder and primary songwriter Silberman reckons with our passively destructive tendencies–absent-minded pollution, unwitting wastefulness, and the inadvertent devastation of the natural world. But despite its heavy themes,Blight is far from a punishing listen. With its adventurous arrangements and persistent momentum, it plays more like an iridescent odyssey.The album was recorded over the course of a few years, with the lion’s share tracked and produced in Silberman’s home studio in upstate New York, a compact outbuilding perched at theedge of a neighbor’s sprawling hayfield.
