DARLINGSIDE
Everything Is Alive, Darlingside’s fourth LP, marks a subtle but remarkable departure for the Boston-based quartet. Here, the album retains much of the lushness and sophistication of Extralife (2018) and Fish Pond Fish (2020). Moreover, the band’s latest work decisively exposes and differentiates the individual voices of the four songwriters. This is a daring reinvention for a group known for ubiquitous vocal harmonies. Everything Is Alive is an album about loss and the struggle for a semblance of redemption. Here, the band grapples with change both personal and universal, with quandaries domestic and existential.

Darlingside is Don Mitchell, Auyon Mukharji, Harris Paseltiner and David Senft. They are four likeminded multi-instrumentalists who first met at Williams College in 2009. Furthermore, Darlingside’s career has been defined by the elegance of their compositions and the unity of their four voices. Their talent for harmony and melodic world-building has garnered praise from outlets like NPR, Rolling Stone and The New Yorker. Additionally, they have created demand worldwide for their extraordinary live performances. Thus, becoming beautifully unindividualized has, in other words, worked very well for Darlingside in the past. 

Darlingside has, over the years, experimented with idiosyncratic methods for elevating and upholding a truly democratic process of songwriting. There, they treat songwriting with a vigor and discipline more common to graduate-level writing workshops than to indie rock. Then, they use processes that include multiple rounds of group writing and recording exercises. They do this all with the aim of escaping the trap that bands with multiple songwriters often fall into. For example, ego-driven infighting and artistic incoherence.
