The Districts – You Know I’m Not Going Anywhere – Ltd Ed, Bubblegum Pink Vinyl, Fat Possum Records, 2020
Limited Edition Indie Exclusive Bubblegum Vinyl.
You Know I’m Not Going Anywhere (2020) by The Districts is an emotionally rich, sonically experimental album. It marked a departure from their earlier raw, guitar-heavy indie rock, embracing more intricate arrangements and electronic textures. Frontman Rob Grote’s songwriting explores themes of identity, loss, and change, resulting in a deeply introspective record. Songs like “Cheap Regrets” mix energetic beats with dark lyrics, while “Hey Jo” offers a more tender, acoustic vibe. The album blends genres, from post-punk to synth-pop, creating an atmospheric, reflective journey. It’s a bold evolution for the band, receiving praise for its adventurous sound and lyrical depth.
