Reverie Lagoon: Music for Escapism Only is an emo-centered indie rock record ruled by its quietermoments. Paralleling the needlessly wordy title, it’s a slightly bloated album. The distractions are minimal, however, and the album’s longest pieces are also its standouts. Seahaven’s preferred genre has changed since 2011’s Winter Forever, but while the band’s current material may not be as easy to consume, it’s arguably more original and ambitious.
