Elbow, the longstanding stalwarts of art and indie rock, present their latest album with a noticeable simplification of their sound. The album features emphatic and captivating art rock ballads, underscored by subtle progressive rock elements. While "Audio Vertigo" may not leave you speechless, it's remarkable that a band with over 20 years in the industry continues to produce exceptional rock music. Their ability to blend the essence of early indie music with modern elements is evident throughout the album. While some tracks showcase impressive linear builds, others may not leave a lasting impact. Nevertheless, Elbow's latest effort is worth exploring, even if it fades from memory once it concludes.
