ALTERNATIVE ROCK
Switchfoot’s interrobang opens with the benediction “beloved,” written in series of statements/questions accurately expressing the album’s symbolic title, a non-standard punctuation mark indicating questions asked like they are exclamations. “I start to recognize I need you/Like you need me,” front man Jon Foreman admits during this nearly six-minute rumination. The album closes with the anthemic, melodically Beatle-eque “electricity,” featuring a lyric that posits how human-to-human created electricity is as essential as the energy flowing across powerlines. Foreman suggests turning off our cellphones and creating a much more organic current. In between these back-to-basics cries for human contact, Switchfoot has given us an emotionally compelling response to our troubled socio/political times.
