After the departure of vocalist Craig Walker, British electronic rock band Archive recruited Pollard Berrier as their new lead vocalist.

Archive’s latest is quite a contrast compared to its predecessor, 2004′s “Noise”. 2 years have passed and somehow I think their music has altered during those years. “Noise” had its ‘darkness’ as a trademark, whereas “Lights” sounds far more uplifting and more coherent as an album. The name of the title kind of expresses the overall atmosphere.

“Lights” is definitely something I would qualify as genre blending. This is the point from which Archive present us their future sound: a mix of their triphop background and an upbeat rock sound, or as I tend to refer to their music myself: triprock.
