The Revivalists Pour It Out Into the Night

The Revivalists make the kind of rock ‘n' roll that grabs you and doesn't let go. On their fifth full-length release, the New Orleans outfit was inspired to create a life-affirming album that in many ways connects to the original seed of inspiration for the band's name. Introduced by the single "Kid," Pour It Out Into The Night is a celebration of resilience, living for who you are and what you're about. With an infectious melody and piano peeking through bright acoustic guitar, intricate layers of the band's distinctive instrumentation power a euphoric chantable chorus: "Hey kid/ Just sing the songs that wake the dead then/ You keep them ringing in your head, yeah/ You gotta get it off your chest/ Don't worry about the mess." As the world came to a standstill in the years since their last album, Take Good Care, personal experiences and life challenges abounded, with band members having their first children, getting married, and navigating the mental hurdles of lockdown.
