Still Corners "The Last Exit" (2021) ****1/2

If you've ever wondered what an entire album based around Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game" would sound like, Still Corners' The Last Exit is your answer. And that's not a back-handed compliment—I love that song and this LP is wonderful. But seriously, there's also a helping of Mazzy Star, Jesse Sykes, Neko Case, Air and some Dire Straits in SC's sound. Simple and catchy melodies, reverb-drenched vocals, twangy guitars, pretty without being too precious—lots to appreciate.
