A selection box of pop-rock magic

A selection box of pop-rock magic. Lawson’s second album—nearly four years in the making—neatly shows off the four-piece’s admirable versatility. They take on all sorts, here: jaunty Police-like workouts (“Rio”), earnest Mumford singalongs (“We Are the Fire”, When I’m Old”) and crashing, high stakes ballads (“Love and War”). And without fail, they hit melodic gold.
