'Lonely People With Power' represents Deafheaven's return to their metal roots, combining elements from their previous album, 'Infinite Granite.' While still featuring powerful screams and heavy beats, the new album navigates a hybrid sound that fuses darker themes with pop-oriented structures. Eight tracks are under six minutes, indicating a more accessible format. The opener, "Doberman," showcases their signature sound with tight instrumental execution. Unlike past albums, this one doesn't radically redefine their style but instead offers a refined interpretation of their established aesthetic, indicating the band’s growth while maintaining their intensity.
On the surface, it most resembles New Bermuda, the dark, muscular album where Deafheaven sought to bolster their metal bona fides.
Many of the tracks here consolidate their strengths in search of a hybrid approach-a way to integrate, rather than reject the brighter sounds of Infinite Granite.
