Readjusting the Locks

Readjusting the Locks is the Institute's groundbreaking album, crafted across the country as half the band moved from Texas to NYC. It skillfully weaves '77 rock n' roll into its sound, with some tracks sounding like they could be Stiff Records classics. Ben Greenberg (Uniform) delivers top - notch production, crisp yet gritty. Lyrically, it breaks away from frontman Moses Brown's personal focus. Instead of delving into his inner thoughts, this album tackles the societal backdrop of his unease. Brown blames Neoliberalism and its utopia myths, arguing that the Western world's belief in future prosperity has created a political void. Those in power keep offering false promises, merely 'readjusting the locks' on our existential crisis.
