Real Estate has always been the perfect soundtrack for an Indian summer, soaked in soft 70s pop, a touch melancholic but never ridiculous. The New Jersey band’s music covers hedonistic pop, gold-plated arpeggios, sophisticated and sugary-sweet melodies (but not overly saccharine), with enough originality to avoid falling into the mainstream or even contracting sonic diabetes… Martin Courtney, Alex Bleeker, Jackson Pollis, Matt Kallman and Julian Lynch know the discographies of The Byrds, The Smiths, Yo La Tengo, Galaxie 500, Steely Dan and evidently The Shins like the backs of their hands. There’s enough source material there to help inspire the creation of near-perfect indie pop songs. With The Main Thing, and as is usually the case with Real Estate, behind the simplicity of the exterior façade and the apparently lax attitude, there is a state of pure beauty and talent operating behind the scenes. The elegance of the arrangement and the efficiency of the production inhabit every corner of this fifth album filled with mini hits, like Paper Cup featuring Sylvan Esso’s Amelia Meath. A 100% authentic and delightful Real Estate record. © Marc Zisman/Qobuz

Album review
Real Estate has always been the perfect soundtrack for an Indian summer, soaked in soft 70s pop, a touch melancholic but never ridiculous. The New Jersey band’s music covers hedonistic pop, gold-plated arpeggios, sophisticated and sugary-sweet melodies (but not overly saccharine), with enough originality to avoid falling into the mainstream or even contracting sonic diabetes… Martin Courtney, Alex Bleeker, Jackson Pollis, Matt Kallman and Julian Lynch know the discographies of The Byrds, The Smiths, Yo La Tengo, Galaxie 500, Steely Dan and evidently The Shins like the backs of their hands.
