Description

Originally released in 2011 and ultimately the swan song of the band's core lineup, In the Grace Of Your Love marked a reset for The Rapture and a welcome return to DFA, the label that helped them make their instantly seminal debut, Echoes.

The momentum and success of those years led to a major label roller coaster ride that dumped them right back where they started, scars to show but now free to push beyond the boundaries of expectation. Guiding them there was the late, great Philippe Zdar, one-half of French dance duo Cassius and producer for the likes of Phoenix and the Beastie Boys. Zdar's enthusiasm and technical prowess are audible within the record's first 30 seconds: "Sail Away" is the Rapture gone widescreen and radiant, a five-minute long exhale with disco drums. There is, of course, plenty of fodder for the dance kids - "How Deep Is Your Love" still slams barroom dance floors in New York City, "Miss You" is a bit of irresistible minor-key mischief - but overall the feeling is one of slowing down, taking stock, searching for meaning and love in more right places than wrong. Ergo, it's finale: "It Takes Time To Be a Man," a charmingly honest, piano-plonked song about taking responsibility and helping others. It sounds like absolutely nothing else in the Rapture's catalog and yet also perfectly ends it. Credits roll, time goes on, records still mean everything.
