After three years, the British electro–rock act The Big Pink is back with their sophomore effort. But in a disappointing turn, Future This proves that the duo hasn’t outgrown the trademark shoegaze sound of their debut album. Tracks like “Stay Gold” and "Rubbernecking" sound loud and clear with their synth–pop jams and melodic lyrics, but the rest of the album monotonously follows suit. The Big Pink definitely shows us what they do best, but unfortunately we’ve already heard it before.
