Album Review: Foster the People - 'Paradise State of Mind'

Foster the people released the first single off their new album Paradise State of Mind recently, it was titled "Lost in Space". The single really got things started off with electronic funk and it gives a very good interpretation of the rest of the album. 


Paradise State of Mind showcases Foster the People's growth as a group since their debut album Torches. If you have listened to Foster the People since the start, Paradise State of Mind harkens back to their first release mixed with some space age textures and sound. 


Overall the album is bright and gives off middle of summer energy. It's something you’d hear at a party, a bar, or you’d drive with your windows down to. There is not one single song on this album you can’t relate to, or won’t get stuck in your head for a few days on end. Extremely catchy, synth heavy, disco heavy, funk heavy and a little bit of gospel there's a little something for everyone. You can tell that after an extended break, how much heart the group put into this effort.


Rating - 3/5
