This writer is utterly devastated to realize that early 2010s music has now come around for its time in the nostalgia spotlight. The once forward-thinking jams of MGMT, STRFKR, Foster the People and alt-J now bring listeners back to a simpler time, when one could dance with friends and do crazy things like “leave the house without getting sick.” The glistening synths, bright guitars, slinky rhythms and carefree lyricism of the time are now a tonic to the low morale that has become our norm—but an electric torch burns on at The Ritz this Thursday.
