Your Children Placate You From Premature Graves

With one of their most vivid, unsettling album titles, the Legendary Pink Dots arrived in the mid-2000s with a restrained and contemplative effort, openly grappling with questions and impressions of mortality throughout its length. Edward Ka-Spel and the Silverman’s keyboards take a certain precedence on Your Children, Ka-Spel’s singing some of his most understated while retaining its own vivid presence. There’s some somewhat noisier songs like “No Matter What You Do,” but the calm, inward feelings of “Stigmata Part 4” and “A Silver Thread” are more representative of the album.
