Breaking: Remember the Humans Ignites BSS’s Boldcomeback
Broken Social Scene’s nine-year hiatus ends decisively with *Remember the Humans*—a vibrant, unapologetically communal return bristling with renewed energy. The Toronto collective’s first album since 2016’s *Forgiveness Rock Record* proves they haven’t lost their knack for layered, emotionally resonant indie rock anthems. Critics hail it as a bold, cohesive statement, reaffirming their influence on the genre’s evolution.
