This album is so freeform, I'm really not sure how I should describe it. The music here doesn't necessarily hit you in the mouth, but its presence is powerful enough to wholly grab your attention. And it doesn't try and pound its way into your ears, but it works its way into your mind, and grabs hold. The power The Kills' music holds is anything but typical.
Midnight Boom's fuzzy, lofi aesthetic gives the album a sense of understated ferocity, as if at any point, the record could lose control and become pure noise and chaos. But it stays under control throughout, delivering raw melodies and riffs that are just as catchy as anything I've ever heard, and yet still keep a sense of substance and authenticity. The only sore point in the album, at least for me, was Goodnight Bad Morning, the only song that doesn't deliver the same sort of power and energy that the rest of the album does, but outside of that, Midnight Boom is flawless.
