Why you should listen: Broken Social Scene’s Kevin Drew is having his midlife crisis in public, leaving a vapour trail of edgy, sometimes-ambient music in its wake. As raw as a call for help, Drew faces mortality — his and that of those he loves — on a sprawling release that features gently pounding piano chords and strings that brush across the tracks like recently disturbed cobwebs moving in a breeze. A somehow hopeful contemplation of death.
