Launch Fly Land

Adopting a moniker as amorphous -- and ubiquitous -- as Dreamers would suggest either a love for the arcane or a desire to cannonball into the mainstream. The Brooklyn-based trio's snappy blend of meticulously crafted electro-pop and indie-leaning alternative rock hews closer to the latter persuasion, but their knack for pairing relatable lyrics with alluring hooks and arena-sized choruses provides its fair share of keepers. More stylistically diverse and pop-forward than their 2016 full-length debut, the guitar-driven This Album Does Not Exist, LAUNCH, FLY, LAND aims for the nosebleed section from the get-go, delivering a trio of fist-pumping crowd-pleasers ("Die Happy," "Dizzy," and "Celebrate") that evoke the kinetic dance rock of Walk the Moon and the glitzy, neon-splashed electro-pop of Imagine Dragons. ~ James Christopher Monger
