Purity Ring: Another Eternity review – Canadian duo hone their dreamy ‘future pop’

In this follow-up to their widely praised debut, Shrines, Canadian duo Purity Ring develop their “future pop” by combining R&B and dance with pop influences to create an intelligent, more confident sound that, in continuing the earthy and timeless poetic lyrics of Shrines, is distinctly their own. The most interesting songs couple uneven rhythms and admirably sparse beats, best exemplified on the single Push Pull. As a whole, the album could do with slightly more counterbalance to the several anthemic tracks, but the delicate final song, Stillness in Woe, is a welcome, dreamy reprieve.
