This week’s record, “Altogether,” by emo/dream pop band Turnover, is a turn toward a new era for the group.

Whenever I studied during the formative years of my associate’s degree, I blared the most mindless music I could acquire.

Perhaps I’m tired. Perhaps the problem, too, is of expectation. When I think of outgrowing music, I think of my friends and I who all unironically listened to nu-metal in junior high.

When winter comes, I like to walk down the road from my duplex and meditate on an empty beach looking out onto Lake Michigan.
