In the nearly five years since CocoRosie released their last album, sisters Bianca and Sierra Casady have been far from idle. In addition to composing for theater pieces, collaborating with legendary theater director Robert Wilson, performing with the Kronos Quartet, and, more recently, popping up on Chance the Rapper’s The Big Day, they have been heavily engaged in the messy business of life. Created in fits and starts over the course of four years, amidst the backdrop of death, divorce, mental illness, falling in love, and copious amounts of healing, CocoRosie’s seventh album — the aptly titled Put The Shine On — is a study in extremes, balancing some of the freshest and most adroit pop songs the band has ever crafted, while simultaneously exploring the most extreme states of human feeling and being — resulting in an album that is both pristine and, at times, harrowing.
Nearly two decades deep into a career marked by experimentation and bucking convention, the duo has made what is arguably the most well-considered, emotionally complicated, and sonically adventurous record of their career.
“CocoRosie is still supremely subverting the mainstream, but that hasn’t stopped the world from listening.” – V Magazine
