About
Since 2008’s <i>Momofuku</i>, his last album with The Imposters—essentially his original band, The Attraction, with a different bassist—Elvis Costello ha, as he is wont to do, dabbled in a range of other genre. There’s been bluegrass and rootsy Americana with T Bone Burnett; even funky, hip-hop-infused soul with The Root. While he tackled those outings with reverence and exuberance—the results were gorgeously unique in a way that only he could achieve—his 25th album, <i>Look Now</i>, feels like that most comfortable pair of jean. Coming after Costello's announcement of a successful recovery from cancer surgery, this welcome return to the styles (and the bandmates) that first elevated him mixes sophisticated pop-rock with singer-songwriter fare that’s as opulent as it is introspective. .
