Breaking: Remember the Humans Ignites BSS’s Jaw-Dropping Return
Broken Social Scene’s nine-year studio hiatus ends dramatically with *Remember the Humans*, a visceral, electrifying comeback album. The record bursts with renewed energy, rejecting nostalgia in favor of urgent, collaborative creativity. Its vitality reasserts the collective’s relevance, proving their communal songcraft still resonates with bold, communal power. Critics hail it as their most cohesive work since *Feel Good*—a vital, timely return.
