Fresh Tunes of 2016: "Three" by the Phantogram [album review]

Review:

Phantogram’s third full length album Three centers on the themes of addiction and acceptance from the self-described psych pop duo of Sarah Barthel and Josh Carter.  Suffering through the untimely loss of Barthel’s sister last January, the expected emotions from this kind of event are channeled to create meaning from loss.  Despite the somber overtone, they weave in light hearted reprieves to balance the scales.

The first half of the album begins with a crawl in the slow building “Funeral Pyre”, but by the time “Same Old Blues” gets rolling out Phantogram’s fans will feel right at home.  It’s both self-aware and deprecating, and the catchy hooks Carter employs makes for some of the album’s best moments.  Barthel’s vocals throughout are superb as usual.  She alternates from violent outburst to haunting reflections with ease.  Carter stays in the background producing for the most part, but notably shares the spotlight with Barthel on the standout track “You’re Mine”. 

Clocking in at a lean thirty-six minutes, Phantogram’s third full album is a whirlwind in every sense.  The erratic and sometimes uneven nature is part of the fun however, and the dark romanticism and vulnerability found within the lyrics makes the whole ride worth a listen.  Three doesn’t reinvent the sound Phantogram has established over the years.  However, it is a solid street beat album that showcases the best of the artists’ talents while admirably never flinching away from their personal flaws.   


Standouts:

Funeral Pyre
Same Old Blues
You Don’t Get Me High Anymore
You’re Mine
Cruel World

    I was scammed by a binary option website. I lost about $253,000 to them. It was a really hard time for me because that was all i had and they tricked me into investing the money with a guarantee that i will make profit from the investment.. I was referred to RecoveryHacker101, they are recovery specialists for all types of online scams, they helped me in recovering all my lost funds I couldn’t believe at first that this was possible as i have lost all hope in contacting anyone on the internet, but i guess not everyone is bad after all. You can reach them on (recoveryhacker101@gmailcom).

    “The Last Line of Defense: My Digital assets Victory”

    After dedicating over two decades of service to the United States Army, I thought I had faced all kinds of battles—physical, emotional, and psychological. But nothing prepared me for the digital ambush I encountered in April: an address poisoning attack that drained my crypto wallet of $407,000 worth of Bitcoin—nearly my entire retirement nest egg.

    It happened quickly and quietly, like a silent sniper in cyberspace. I had conducted a routine transaction and unknowingly copied a malicious wallet address that mimicked my frequently used one. Within seconds, the BTC was gone—vanished into the ether of the blockchain. My stomach dropped. Years of careful planning and saving evaporated in one click.

    Hopeless and disoriented, I reached out to a few experts, only to be met with empty promises and copy-paste responses. Just when I was about to accept the loss, I heard about TROYHACKS CYBER SERVICES, a name whispered with reverence in crypto circles. Known for tackling even the most complex cyber crimes, I took a chance and contacted them.

    What happened next felt like a military-grade operation—but digital.

    The TROYHACKS team worked with surgical precision. Within hours, they’d identified the spoofed address, traced the transaction across multiple wallets, and uncovered a laundering trail hidden beneath layers of obfuscation. Their mastery of blockchain forensics was nothing short of brilliant. They didn’t just understand the game—they redefined the rules.

    Every update they gave felt like a briefing before deployment: clear, strategic, and results-driven. Days later, the moment I never thought I’d see again arrived—they recovered my lost Bitcoin. All of it.

    There are no words strong enough to describe the gratitude I feel for TROYHACKS CYBER SERVICES. Their tireless efforts, cutting-edge skillset, and refusal to back down were the only reasons my assets weren’t lost forever.

    To any veteran, investor, or civilian who finds themselves ambushed in the murky world of crypto crime: TROYHACKS is your frontline defense.They don’t just recover crypto—they restore peace of mind. Below are the contact addresses they can be reached through and I wish you all best of lucks just as I encountered:
