Jun 26, 2024From the blocky organ chunks that lead “I’m Angry” to the fuzzed-out almost-boogie of “Shark-Shark,” the diversity of POPtical Illusion teases its way out after subsequent listens.

Jun 20, 2024The subtle effects lurking in the background, although tastefully applied, aren’t enough to pull the rest of the modest pop tunes out of the doldrums, making POPtical Illusion difficult to return to as a whole, but at least it shows that Cale is happy to keep his ideas flowing and moving forward.

Jun 17, 2024POPtical Illusion doesn’t sound quite as contemporary as Kim Gordon’s 2024 rage-rap album The Collective, but it’s still a thrill to hear John Cale continue to evolve, make big swings and, occasionally, knock it out of the park. Let’s hope he writes his Lulu next.
