As the days finally get warmer and sunnier in New York City, indie-rock artist Father John Misty’s latest studio album, Mahashmashana, is just the sound for the season. The record’s title track, specifically its grand riff, feels like it should be played in the background of a movie scene where people are stepping outside for the first time in years. Misty also encourages us to do a little spring cleaning with the track “She Cleans Up.” The tune’s groovy bassline and punchy guitar pair nicely with jazzy horns that make you want to move a little faster. He takes it down a notch and digs deeper with the songs “Mental Health” and “I Guess Time Just Makes Fools of Us All.” What more could you want from an album? —Henry McGrath
