I'm not sure how to take Houndmouth’s latest. That’s likely the intent.

After weathering multiple lineup changes, asking existential questions, and waiting out a global pandemic, Houndmouth is back with a satisfying new album, Good for You. On the one hand, the title aptly describes a set of songs that goes down like a most-welcome drink. On the other, it echoes the album’s ability to raise a glass to warm memories and painful lessons. No matter the slant, it’s all good for you, I suppose.
